An experiment in abstract film-making, this short film (as it name implies) consists only of vertical lines, drawn directly onto each film frame, that change in response to music. (imdb)

Yeah, I skipped to random parts and it was all the same. Not enough explosions imo.

If Norman McLaren and Evelyn Lambart haven't killed themselves already then the world is a terrible place. Nothing is worse than people who think they are artistic but yet have no talent.

McLaren goes from "cute" to small and solemn and rather pretty. I can understand why some people just don't dig a movie this abstract, but that's one of the things I like about it

Yawn-inducing technical exercise. 5 minutes of vertical lines is an eternity.

Good old Norman, pushing film boundaries while under the NFB.

There's not much to it to even comment on. I did find it calming (and not torturous to sit through) but it's just so bland and it doesn't even go with the music all that well. When there's a million music visualization apps and media players that can do it better whats the point.
