"Small audiences of artists and bohemians in loft spaces and galleries in the major East and West coast cities were the only people to see these films."
My dad organized a screening of Windsong back when he was in college at Wichita. Take THAT, documentary people.
He was all ready to go off and study with Parch too, but he went and died. Stupid Harry Partch, dying all the time.
