Beautiful.

[tzolkyn]

he make the open credits in fight club, please open your mind to the expierence of pure cinema.

[Neonman78]

@tzolkyn No, he didn't. (his scratched-in credits style was replicated in Fincher's earlier Se7en, though)

It must've been expensive, goofing off with color film like this in 1959.

[WhiteMarz]

I've been taught the same thing, but Hollywood really does not always produce boring(already done before) films. I think both Hollywood and experimental films have positive and negative sides to them.

Deep fetish !!!

Stan Brakhage came to my school to give a talk and show one of his films. I'm glad people make stuff like this. It's nice to just look at stuff that looks good sometimes instead of these long boring stories for the massses that Hollywood pumps out. Not that I don't like sometimes, but I'm glad that stuff like this is around as well. Look at the people here. So real. Much more telling than what other shows show. This could be now, not 1959.

Breathtaking... x

I actually cried while watching this, it's just so beautiful.

[Aydinlolol]

I dunno man, several plot holes, the storyline is alright-ish at best, really good character development

[Dunce1979]

@spectatorsRwelcome haha wow you're dumb

[troykivey]

@Aydinlolol I mean...the whole trancendence of the soul the cat experiences is contradicted by the pillow in the light, I mean, if god is dead: how to does the kitchen stay?

LOLWUT

But seriously, this is brilliant.

[majorhoop]

@MrMeddled ----unlike 99.9% of commercial filmmaking, i suppose......

[nileppezdel777]

Amazing. Beautiful and dangerous and erotic.

[MrFilms22]
