I would like to see this film with a live musical score sometime, somewhere. As far as I remember from the history of animated avantgarde cinema, I enjoyed European directors more (and mainly Raoul Servais, and I recommed his "Harpya" the most), but Smith is kind of a different story. When it comes to the runtime, I will gladly give an hour of my time to watch somebody else's out-of-body experience, especially when I compare it to the amounts of time modern convetional film-makers demand the viewer gives them. And also probably because I will never take even so much as an approximate volume of drugs as Harry Smith to see these things firsthand. He is offering a lesson in friskiness against the prevalent sensation that everything about art must be serious and important, as well as extending a middle finger at anybody willing to be offended by such a trifle of a film.
