Abastract Film Circa 1950


Harry Everett Smith, born Portland, Or. 1923 was, besides an experimental film maker, the greatest living magician. This according to Kenneth Anger. He was also an ethnomusicologist, mystic and all around nutter. My kinda guy. He died at the Hotel Chelsea in 1991, adding his ghost to the many that frequent it. Dylan Thomas, Nancy, I forget who else. Great ghosts they have.
