Blues

About This Movie

So, Blues, or Pisces as it’s sometimes called, is one of those elusive gems that really makes you think. It’s part of Belson's Synchronicity Suite, which already signals something intriguing, right? The film's pacing is meditative, almost dreamlike, creating a unique atmospheric experience that lingers. You can see Belson's experimental flair in the visuals, which blend practical effects in a way that feels organic and otherworldly. It's unfinished, yet there's a certain rawness that adds character. The themes of synchronization and cosmic connection run deep, making it quite an oddball in the avant-garde scene of its time. Definitely gives off a vibe that’s hard to pin down but unmistakably compelling.

Blues is quite scarce, not something you see pop up often in collections or even at screenings. It’s intriguing how it fits into Belson’s larger body of work, especially considering its unfinished status. Collectors often seek it out for its unique visual style and the conversation it sparks about the nature of experimental cinema. If you manage to find a print or screening, it’s a special kind of experience, offering a glimpse into Belson's creativity during a transformative time in film.
