Two Stars

About This Movie

So, 'Two Stars' from 1977 is quite an interesting piece of early animation by Lisze Bechtold. The film has this dreamy, experimental quality that feels like it’s tapping into something more abstract. The pacing is deliberate, allowing the viewer to really get absorbed in the visuals, which are a blend of hand-drawn and perhaps some early mixed media. You can sense a personal touch in the way the characters are animated, as if they’re not just shapes but expressions of deeper themes. It’s not the most polished work, but that’s what makes it distinctive. There’s an intimacy here that’s hard to describe—like peering into someone’s creative process rather than just watching a story unfold.

This film is relatively obscure, with limited availability in home media formats. It has seen some interest among collectors who appreciate early animation as a form of artistic experimentation. The scarcity of 'Two Stars' makes it a noteworthy find for those looking to explore the evolution of animated storytelling, especially in the context of the 1970s avant-garde scene.
