Something Completely Different

Parábola (1937)

*** (out of 4)

I guess the best way to describe this type of film is that it's spirograph animation. Hopefully that makes sense but there's virtually no plot here but instead you're treated to the use of light and how it shows up against shadows. I'll be honest and admit that I'd probably never watch this film from Mary Ellen Bute a second time but at the same time I don't mind saying that the picture was quite impressive for what it was. This certainly isn't my favorite type of animation but it is visually like poetry and I thought for the most part that it was entertaining. It's a bit stretched out at nine-minutes but there's no question that it was worth watching once.
