23rd Psalm Branch: Part II
1967 · 31 min
Stan BrakhageCast
Peter KubelkaPlot
The second part: Brakhage’s layering of images spends less time with images of war, and begins filtering in scenes of Vienna and his home in Colorado. He sets up a comparison between “Kubelka’s Vienna” and his own.
Sinekatalog’s take
Layered imagery folds war footage together with scenes of Vienna and home life, building a meditative comparison. Intense and visually complex, it is a thoughtful, challenging piece for those who like Brakhage at his most political and personal.Sinekatalog’s own editorial review – not a user or critic quote.
