Four in the afternoon. A film suite

Description

Four short films adapted from the poetry of James Broughton: Game Little Gladys, The Gardener's Son; Princess Printemps, and The Aging Balletomane. Delightful and sentimental, the interludes date back to silent cinema full of playful mime and dreamy reverie. As such the vignettes offer a welcome antidote to the high-mindness of most avant-garde films. 16mm 1.37:1 black & white sound; production Farallone Films; with Anna Halprin, Welland Lathrop, John Graham; music by William O. Smith.
