Fascinating and bizarre. Like seeing the world from the cat's perspective (a few third person shots thrown in for good measure), then chopping the footage up like mad in a manner that would make Eisenstein proud. The red tint (which also makes the film feel really warm) and crazy editing makes everything seem kind of alien, and slowly you find yourself adjusting to seeing things this way.

The chaotic editing and nostalgic colours and recurring images and abrasive effects turn this abstract piece of work into a unworldly moving event.

It got a little old but I still rather liked it for it's strange somewhat sinister visual style.

Another one of those "Stan's home movies" that I just don't find that interesting, no matter how he edits it, or what kind of justification he conjures for it.

Another strange, fascinating little movie from Brakhage. All that fast cutting must have been an incredible bitch in 1959

Not very visually interesting if you ask me. When the montage work is really fast it becomes compelling but otherwise boring.
