Review of The Alphabet (1969) by Lafe F — 30 Mar 2010
Early Lynch short film. While it fascinated me I can't put my finger on what it may mean on any level. I guess it's the fabric that nightmares are made of. Still, I really appreciate the filmic surrealism and possibly dadaism depicted here through wonderfully weird and disturbing visuals that will definitely stay with you.
It really needs to be put in the concept of being a completely handmade film to be fully appreciated. This stuff wouldn't be half as intriguing if it was made yesterday by a digital graphics artist.
In conclussion, a nightmare painting of a film.
