Those who like this film should see anything directed by Canadian filmmaker Guy Maddin. Gimli Hospital is my favorite.

Fascinating film! I had read about this recently and wondered if there was still a print in existence. Good old YouTube comes through again.
I think you can make a connection between this film and later films by Kenneth Anger, Andy Warhol and even up to David Lynch's "dreamier" films.

I understand Cornell's fascination with Hobart because I share it. She's mesmerizing. For those that might be interested, Rose wrote an autobiography called "A steady Digression to a Fixed Point". Not Pulitzer material (she wrote it when she was 87) but it does provide an insight into a most beautiful and charismatic woman.

Brilliant! Cornell was a wonderful artist. I haven't seen this film since the 70s, thanks so much for posting with the music.

During the screening, Dali became outraged at Cornell's movie, claiming he had just had the same idea of applying collage techniques to film. After the screening, Dali remarked to Cornell that he should stick to making boxes and to stop making films. Traumatized by this event, the shy, retiring Cornell never showed his films publicly again. - Wikipedia.

Dali was a dick. The art scene never changes.

Dali actually knocked the projector over (Cornell was operating it) in a rage! Crazy.
