James Broughton's Biography

Quote:
Image
Image

Dreamwood (1972)
Photography, John Schofill, Fred Padula; Music, Morton Subotnick.

"DREAMWOOD is James Broughton's major work to date. It is a modern day spiritual odyssey in which a man is mysteriously compelled to leave his home and embark on a voyage to a strange and magical island. On the island he faces the most improbable and intense experiences of his life, ranging from total humiliation to a deep sense of oneness with the forces of life. Heroic in concept, subtle in execution, DREAMWOOD is a beautiful film by a true master of the medium." - David Bienstock

"DREAMWOOD is Broughton's finest film." - Jerome Hill

"No single film in the whole of the American avant-garde comes as close as this one to the source of the trance film, Cocteau's Blood of a Poet." - P. Adams Sitney

Awards: First Prize, Independent Filmmakers Festival, 1972; Foothill College Film Festival, 1972.

Mother's Day (1948)
Kermit Sheets, assistant director; Frank Stauffacher, photography; Howard Brubeck, music.

One of the first major works of the San Francisco film movement, MOTHER'S DAY is a painfully humorous recollection of childhood in which a family of singular adults recreate their infancy by behaving as they did when growing up.

"Humorous, satirical, and overwhelmingly skillful, this ironic camera exploration of the artist's world of memory, imagination and perception is among the finest, most challenging films yet produced in this country." - Arthur Knight

"MOTHER'S DAY for me is one of the great films in film history." - Peter Kubelka

Awards: Belgium, 1949; Venice, 1952.

Four in the Afternoon (1951)
Featuring Ann Halprin and Welland Lathrop; Photography, James Broughton; Music, William O. Smith.

Four poetic variations on the search for love; four odd characters living out their daydreams: Game Little Gladys, The Gardener's Son, Princess Printemps, and The Aging Balletomane. Based on Broughton's own poems, this film blends image, music and verse in moods from the farcical to the elegaic.

"Lovely and delicious, true cinematic poetry." - Dylan Thomas

"The best film poetry ever made." - Willard Maas

Loony Tom (1951)
Photography & poem, James Broughton; Music, Ralph Gilbert.

"This little slapstick comedy pictures the amorous progress of a prancing, baggy-trousered, bowler-hatted, demented and blissfully happy tramp who capers across a sunlit countryside making love to every woman he encounters. Half Rabelais, half Mack Sennet, LOONY TOM owes a great deal to the spirited miming of Kermit Sheets as the Happy Lover." - Paul Dehn, London Times

Awards: Edinburgh Film Festival; Venice Film Festival; Oberhausen Film Festival.

:o This really surprises me! I'd like to know if someone else had problems, because this file should be very-very-very standard stuff. On linux it plays perfectly, and while on Raw Deal there might have been some issues on the headers, this should be a total vanilla Xvid rip...

God, while XP is far better than previous MS OSes, Windows still does such a mess with codecs :evil:
