The Death of the Gorilla

  • Run time: 16 min
  • Premiere: 1966. November 4.

A sight/sound combine of exotic imagery shot semi-randomly in superimposition off a TV and then cut to make a fast moving but extremely ambiguous ‘story.’ Gorilla moves through modern man’s myth mind like a runaway train bursting at the seams. Preserved by the Academy Film Archive in 2011.
