The story of Stan Brakhage's CHINESE SERIES is both a somewhat sad and yet an incredibly beautiful one.

But I had seen so many independents going wrong at so many points that I never believed he could make a flick. He asked a bit of advise concerning effects because he knew my acknowledge of horror and weird flicks, I even told him were he could sell his stuff on the Web but suddenly the DVD wa...

Year: 1959

We see a film negative of a nude couple embracing in bed. Then, back in regular black and white images, we see them alone and together, clothed, at home. It's night, she sees his reflection in the window, she closes the drapes. After sex, again in a black and white negative, they sit, smoke, have coffee. They kiss, she smiles. They light candles. The images are often quick, the camera angles occasionally are off kilter; the room is sometimes dark and sometimes lit, as if lit by the rotating of a searchlight. The images again appear in negative when they return to bed.
