There is a film in which the cinematic style, the use of camera movement and composition and rhythm and editing and light, depict a first-person protagonist trying to enter the world of light, to dance with light, to become light. This is a striving perfect for cinematic exploration. In this film, the protagonist fails, leading inevitably to its "tragic" ending. This film grows in significance when you understand that not long after, in subsequent films, the same filmmaker succeeds at what he had depicted himself failing at. This film is Stan Brakhage's Anticipation of the Night. Its predecessors include Maya Deren's Meshes of the Afternoon and Kennith Anger's Fireworks. Fred Camper Chicago
