    Wow. It kept going and going. This may be a demo reel for a creature effects studio. They just kept coming. Stranger than the last.

    Mise en scène meets set piece after set piece. Inventing a puzzle that may not have a solution, inventing a game with no object would never be tolerated. But in art, in cinema, in the work of Peter Greenway these games and puzzles delight and confound. 

    “What an opportunity, alone on an open boat with the women you love and an invitation to undress.”

    ★★★★

    Surrealism is easy, close up of an eyeball with ants crawling it while someone narrates a shopping list.

    But a film that leaves you in the mood of surrealism with just light touches of the strange and different is much harder to pull off. This small film is larger than it's runtime in depth and texture.

    It has very little dialogue and with some of it shot in Berlin in the 80s and then some of it shot in Portland…

    Virginia Madsen. Virginia Madsen. Virginia Madsen. And a Beastie Boys rip-off closing credit number. Oh and Virginia Madsen.
