Fragment of Seeking

Curtis Harrington's experimental short, written and produced when he was 20 -- although not released anywhere for almost two decades -- is about a young man who has a sexual non-encounter with a pretty girl. The images are about the linkages of sex and death, there is no dialogue, and the overwrought music that makes up the soundtrack convinces me this is intended to mock the overwrought ideation of adolescents. I thought it was funny, and deliberately so.

Harrington would go on to have a career as a director, mostly in horror movies.
