Introspection

This is from a collection of artsy shorts entitled “Unseen Cinema: Early American Avant-Garde Film 1894-1941”. It’s certainly NOT the sort of DVD set that the average person would want to watch.The film is set to the music of Franz Schubert and is very strange. Much of it consists of disembodies arms and legs all moving about to the music. There are also folks in body suits moving rhythmically to the tune. Occasionally, there are shots of a guy in full color with multiple exposures–you’d have to see it to understand. The net effect is simply weird but the music is good and it’s all a bit mesmerizing. The film is all in color–but rather faded.
