As this shape of tower disappears, the conflagration of scratches and paints seems grounded and takes on the semblance of a battle of knights, their lances, horses, et al., often against a scattering of star-like flecks until finally the silhouette of the tower reappears as if much closer, certainly thicker and straight-sided. The film finishes as textures which tend to suggest an entrance into the textured walls of the tower, textures and stars intermingled with what may well seem chain-mail as well."- -Canyon Cinema catalog, http://canyoncinema.com/catalog/ film/?i=3501 533 Film microfilm reel.|bEnglewood, Colo. :|cWestern CINE, |d[2002].|e1 film reel (3 min.) : si., col. ; 16 mm. 541 0 |3PFA 1604-01-16824. |a D0447 |c donation |d 2015/07/31 |5CBPF 590 PFA 1604-01-16824.|aCONDITION NOTE: Inspected 2015/08/05 cv; very good; very light wear. 655 7 Experimental films.|2lcgft 655 7 Short films.|2lcgft 700 1 Brakhage, Stan,|efilmmaker. 710 2 Canyon Cinema,|efilm distributor. 710 2 Film-Makers' Cooperative,|efilm distributor. 730 0 Brakhage Collection. 956 20170203 |bpfmcq|cCCE 957 OCLC xref loaded 20170212 994 C0|bCUY
