Breathdeath (1963) : distribution, intrigue et streaming
1963 · Film · ★ 4.5
Released in 1963, Breathdeath is a notable film directed by Stan VanDerBeek.
What it’s about. A surrealistic fantasy based on the 15th century woodcuts of the dance of the dead. A film experiment that deals with the photoreality and the surrealism of life. A collage-animation that cuts up photos and newsreel film and reassembles them, producing an image that is a mixture of unexplainable fact (Why is Harpo Marx playing a harp in the middle of a battlefield?) with inexplicable act (Why is there a battlefield?). It is a black comedy, a fantasy that mocks death ... a parabolic parable.
How it landed. With an audience score of 4.5/10, Breathdeath has proved divisive with audiences.
