FILMS OF JEAN PAINLEVE

one of my online 'friends' daniel turned me on to this guy, french filmmaker, jean painleve. his short, magical subaquatic documentaries on subjects including the love life of the octopus, seahorses, and “freshwater assassins” are said to be the predecessors of all modern nature films. d, thanks for talking sealife with me and looking at my childhood seahorse painting. i do love the internet.

'accera or the witches dance' (1972)



le vampire (1945)

beautiful.
