Castro Street (1966) is a visual nonstory short documentary film directed by Bruce Baillie.
Inspired by Satie, the film uses the sounds and sights of a city streetâÂÂin this case, Castro Street near the Standard Oil Refinery in Richmond, California, complete with diesel trains and gas plantsâÂÂto convey the street's own mood and feel as there is no dialogue in this non-narrative experimental film.
In 1992, the film was selected for preservation in the United States National Film Registry by the Library of Congress as being "culturally, historically, or aesthetically significant". The Academy Film Archive preserved Castro Street in 2000.
