Trio

About This Movie

Trio is a fascinating piece, capturing a woman and two men in a series of dialogues that unfold in an unusual montage. It plays with pacing—starting fast, slowing down for introspection, and then picking up again, almost like a musical composition. The second movement, featuring Stan Brakhage's footage, adds an experimental twist that sets it apart from more narrative-driven works. The atmosphere is almost meditative, inviting you to linger on each segment. It's a unique exploration of human connection through dialogue and visuals—definitely not your standard fare, which is what makes it intriguing.

Trio has had a somewhat obscure release history, with various formats that make finding a well-preserved copy a challenge. Collectors often seek out limited run editions or screenings, as the film's distinctive style and structure offer a glimpse into the experimental cinema of the 70s. Interest seems to be growing among those who appreciate the interplay of dialogue and imagery, particularly with the connection to Brakhage's work. It’s a niche curiosity that speaks to a specific taste in film collecting.
