Night Blossoms

About This Movie

Night Blossoms is a fascinating piece from ‘65 that beckons with a dreamlike quality and an experimental vibe. The intertwining footage by Tom Chomont evokes the vivid colors and forms reminiscent of Odilon Redon’s canvases, really a treat for the eyes. The pacing, while contemplative, doesn't lose its grip on the viewer, allowing moments to breathe and letting the atmosphere settle in. It's more about evoking feelings than telling a straightforward story, which is part of its charm. You can feel the essence of that era's avant-garde film scene, with a hint of Kuchar's influence lingering in the background.

Night Blossoms is considered a rarity among collectors due to its limited release and the obscure nature of its creators. The film's experimental style and the unique blend of visual art and cinema make it a fascinating study for enthusiasts. Various formats have surfaced over the years, but finding a decent copy can be tricky, and the interest in this work has been growing steadily among those who appreciate the avant-garde cinema of the 1960s.
