I shot it with my Bolex camera. I think the filmmaker (and my ex-student) Curt McDowell visited me during this time because there are some stills of me peppered here and there in the movie. The motel I was staying at is the only one that had an underground cellar. This was comforting when twisters threatened but was not well managed as the doors were unhinged making it more like sliding open a lid rather than opening a portal. It eventually became filled with ankle deep mud which for one panicked mother was more terror inducing than a full- fledged tornado. She told me to hand back the baby I was holding as she preferred to ride out the storm above ground and wanted no part of that muck. Luckily for her and little junior, the violent funnel cloud lifted before hitting the town but it was a close call!"--George Kuchar, from Harvard Film Archive program note. 541 0 |3PFA 1604-01-15932. |aD0483 |cpreservation acquisition |d 2011/08/18 |5CBPF 541 0 |3PFA 1604-01-15933. |aD0484 |cpreservation acquisition |d 2011/11/08 |5CBPF 541 0 |3PFA 1604-01-15934. |aD0484 |cpreservation acquisition |d 2012/10/25 |5CBPF 541 0 |3PFA 1604-01-15935. |aD0484 |cpreservation acquisition |d 2013/02/22 |5CBPF 541 0 |3PFA 1604-01-15936. |aD0484 |cpreservation acquisition |d 2013/02/22 |5CBPF 541 0 |3PFA 1604-01-15937. |aD0484 |cpreservation acquisition |d 2013/03/26 |5CBPF 590 PFA 1604-01-15932.|aAnswer print #1 from new Colorlab interneg made from original A-roll reversal and George's neg track.
