Review of The Inauguration of the Pleasure Dome (1954) by Roy C — 15 Feb 2010
Not sure what to take from this film beyond a certain hedonistic "feast of the gods" ambience, but it's visually spectacular. Compound images, vivid colors, costumes...I'm sure quite a few acidheads have enjoyed tripping to this one over the years (if they could find a copy, that is).
The green conehead in the powdered wig becomes a bit grating, but if you've always wanted to see Anais Nin with a birdcage over her head, this film will make your day.
