Blood Tea And Red String trailer

[KarNYCLoAMR]

"David Lynchean fever dream on Beatrix Potter terrain..." Yep, that's pretty spot-on. Not a rip off of Lynch; This director's vision is similarly twisted but is uniquely their own. If you have a brain for art films, watch this one. It's not so much entertaining as it is captivating. Even the 'slow' bits and the creepy psycho-sexual bits are still beautiful to watch because the stop-animation is good. Not for kids, natch! This film might've been bit better if it hadn't been labored over so long.

[CaliCaliente00]

Looks incredibly creepy, in a beautiful way...

[razzingherr]

Magical work, so inspiring!

[suzicats200]

I saw it and had to buy it.

AMAZING & BEAUTIFUL!!!!!!!

[wehavemagnums]

I just stopped by to say - I love this film. It's wonderful.

[eqopa]

Thank you Ms Cegavske for making this film. We're really looking forward to Seed in the Sand!

[ELBSeattle]

Based on this trailer alone I went ahead and bought the DVD from Amazon. Blood Tea and Red String is unlike anything else I've ever seen. A beautiful, haunting, unsettling film. I have watched it several times already. If you like The Brothers Quay then get yourself a copy of Blood Tea and Red String.

[TPsynth]

This is an amazing work of art, I highly recommend purchasing this DVD .

Some of the best stop-motion work that's ever been done...every frame a is a masterpiece.

[moldero]

dope

[Minusculesk]

this touched me really deep and brought me to tears.thank you for sharing.

[MephProduction]

Is there a R2 dvd available? I've been wanting to watch this for quite awhile

[genevieveportfolio]

Lovely :)

[Chynaash]

so um...their looking for a human girl and even created a doll of her......they drink blood and like death and to play with dead things....?

[2Dope4Ya69]

bad feeling - creepy

[cartooncarnival]

Very entertaining. You're quite a talent!

[skyci]

alter habt ihr alle kein leben oder was ??? was schaut ihr euch son scheiß an man ihr seit alle echt bemitleidenswerte kreaturen ....

[Leppi0]

@skyci Haha, nur weil du nicht den nötigen Grips hast um den Film zu verstehen.

[TravoltaTunes]

@skyci unglaublich, was für ein idiot du bist.

[hittheground]

loved the movie, too bad the trailer tells the whole story up front....

[h3llelujah]

I was faszinated from the first second I watched this movie! It's Amazing!!!

[Zorpad90]

I just saw this movie. It's amazing. Christiane Cegavske created a wonderful world, and this movie drags you right into it.

[Jokahainen]

Saw that film right now this Night.

First time it was on TV here in germany, and... wow...

Amazing. Too bad I got home to late to watch the whole movie.

No matter. I will get this film... and some other night when I've again drunk a little bit red wine in moonlight like this time I will watch it again.

Beautiful movie.

[Carmustin]

I saw it just a few minutes ago in TV on 3sat (a german TV channel)... it's just an amazing movie... but I missed the start of the movie :( so first I wasn't understanding what this was about :P

[RoCkiTGermany]

@Carmustin

hättest nur kurz in teletext schauen müssen, ich hatte auch den anfang verpasst. geiler film.

[emo102492]

Why am I reminded of the doctor who stole the girls body and kept wiring it together,and insurted a vaginal tube to have sex with the corpse.........(that really did happen,in florida back in 30-50s time area i think)

[KennethJDeVries]

A timeless masterpiece - one of the greatest stop-motion films ever made. Cegavske has earned a proud place in the pantheon of the greats.

[hotronscorcher]

watched this last night. thank you thank you thank you Christiane Cegavske. thank you.

[JaneyMadeInJapan]

Looks interesting, and the music is really nice

[CRASSxCLASS]

do not want.=[

[Pammigal]

Wow this tells quite a story.....

[arisanji]

this is really creepy...

[ShastaEngland]

I saw it a while back... it's beautiful... i can't wait to purchase it. Sigh...

[MushroomMai]

For some reason, my last comment on having finally got the dvd has been thumbed as 'negative': despite the fact I have said nothing negative in it.

Oh dear.

Anyway, beautiful piece of art, cinema, and craftsmanship!

[FantasmaLuna]

I have got to get my hands on this! It looks fantastic!

[leandrosandreas]

Love the trailer. But who is playing the flute? The music in this clip is just magical....

[0drad3k]

The genius behind the soundtrack is Mark Growden, the sexiest mofo on the West Coast.

[roellwatchTV]

@leandrosandreas Mark Growden wrote it and played it (:

[nyarlotep]

I saw this movie three years ago in a film festival and was amazed on how touching it was. Beautifull film.

[PlastiqueQueen]

i bought it one year ago without knowing the whole thing it just seemed so magical.

Then i watched and fell in love.

this is true magic.

[tygr49]

Ah, don't worry about that loser's comments. He/she probably thinks G.I. Joe is the pinnacle of artistic cinema achievement. This is a beautiful film.

[HeadNtheClouds]

lets see your art work then...

[theyou92]

I would hate to meet the writer for this work of "art" then

[o0monox0o]

it's BEAUTIFUL!!

nice music too!!!

[shinyrobotblues]

I'm buying this.

[MushroomMai]

I have finally FINALLY got this on DVD, I havn't had time to finish it yet though :( I got interupted.

But what I have seen of it is amazing. I adore it, its beautiful. :)

[izabellizima]

I LOVED it!!!

The music is SO great...specially the whiet mice music...WOOT

[Zoomology]

I will never sleep again

[EEspatula]

LMAO ZOO

[thehappysock]

for some reason this depresses me greatly. i think i need a bath

[MushroomMai]

This looks amazing... very eery, but in a beautiful way.

It looks like a lot of effort has been put into it, and the music is beautiful. I also like the way its been described as a fairytale for adults, I dont think adults are given fairytales anymore. And as Im becoming more of an adult, I dont want to miss out on them, they give me hope.

I think this looks, just, gorgeous.

[opiumpoppy]

Beautiful. WHAT IS THE MUSIC??

[zombieminxz]

Lovely. beyond words.

[coincidence63]

Ah! This is better than, uh, well, lot's of things!!! Ya' dig?

[viciaoxxx]

i loved it

[albertincu]

muy pero muy bueno esta de pelos

very very good

[Callie78]

okay i dont want to be classified as a hater

but this movie is really creepy!

i saw it today at school and it was..intense..

whats it about?

[FLPman]

do you shoot with natural grass? I'm doing a film with 90% ouside, looking for some advice on scenery options

(trees, grass, rocks, flowers, etc)

[lovingromance]

i think in the commentary, she said she added something to the artificial blood. i can't remember. maybe you should watch the movie with the commentary :D

[lovingromance]

uh...sure? it's just artificial blood. colored glycerin...ok haha :D

[lovingromance]

the director said she just used that fake blood stuff. like the ones people use during halloween

[macpips]

Saw this at the Green Man Festival in August. Amazing!

[aliencatx]

this movie is creppy as hell, If your into something out of the norm you might like it but it tends to be a bit boring at times

[attela666]

I've seen this movie yesterday. Simply wonderful.

[apologeticsman]

That was bloody creepy

[gothicblonde]

This looks so interesting :)

I want to see it! ^_^

I love stop motion.

I really like what I've seen of Jan Svankmajer's work, and this makes me think of a few of his animations! :)

[LivelyLorikeet]

I want to see this film so much!

[quiteflypaper]

Stop motion officially owns CGI. You can tell how much care and devotion has been put into the making of this film. Most CGIs are just flashy colourful toy advertisements.

I love that skull-crow thing it's so lovely! I want one ;__;

[Shim999]

How beautiful!

[Orbster25]

that's awesome...i love stop motion.

[niu8fans]

so cult...

Maybe it is masterpiece but it really scared me so much...

[iandre]

The 16mm print will be screening in Portland, OR on Valentine's Day 2008

[MeowGirlMills]

Interesting!

[7chatons]

really a masterpiece!

[shobha]

this IS my favorite movie in the whole world. I bought it and have had 2 blood tea and red string viewing parties so far..........

[pussyface]

saw it when Ms. Cegavske brought it to LA last spring. now i own it on DVD. totally AMAZING and well crafted. if you dont understand it, then you should go back to watching reality televsion or hollywood "blockbusters".

[itsokintheend]

it makes me want to puke... no offense although most animated things do.

[IVomitOrgasms]

Same here. All the good stop motion movies have an eerie feel to them, but I still enjoy them.

[itsokintheend]

I also dont like the wallace and gromit animtions... they make make me sick... but I could never do it so I think its cool.. I just cant watch them.

The only kind I can are the ones tim burton makes.

[theyou92]

exactly.

[missmarleyx]

me and my friend rented this movie at the library because we thought it would be cool....WRONG!! THIS MOVIE'S FUCKED UP AS SHIT DUDE!!!

[slartibartfast12]

its really good, what didnt you like about it?

[theyou92]

i know! seriously who would make this shit?!?

[dynamos87]

people!people! if you absolutely want to see this film or if you missed it (like I did) you can always buy it on Amazon. com...It's worth it!

[swann8ll]

Amazing! Thanks for posting! Would love to see the whole film

[xredblack]

Fantastic, i love it.

[francoskrumpli]

I LOVE I LOVE I LOVE .

[ella8668]

this is a beautifu video

[BeefTurkey]

The mice look cute!

[theindigo]

When will it be back in San Francisco?

[ChiCubUSA]

Once again, an excellent piece of work! Absurdly amusing and nicely poignant. Loved the score as well!

[petro1986]

Love the trailer, I want to know when it will be coming to England...

[UnariaAncora]

This excites me.

[ChiCubUSA]

For those of you in Los Angeles, "Blood Tea & Red String" will have a special screening at the Laemmle Sunset 5, 8000 Sunset Blvd. Friday and Saturday, March 2 and 3 of 2007 at Midnight.

[nyarlotep]

Great animation, story and oustanding music

[significants]

*floored* will it grace portland?

[iandre]

Yes it should. You can request it at your local Art House theatre.

[redridingwolf]

[yaffle]

This looks fantastic.

[pdogcrush]

reason number 3762 for living in nyc...will run to the pioneer theatre ASAP and bring as many friends as i can...totally enchanting...

[ViolentPlayground]

Simply stunning.

[LadyFrija]
