Re: [Frameworks] mental problems

[John McAndrew]

I highly recommend the freak out scene/s in the 1978 film Death Drug - it's
a clusterfuck of slowed down video, overlaid synth effects (both visual and
audio), cheesy hallucinations and completely over the top acting from Miami
Vice's Philip Michael Thomas - has to be seen to be believed! The full film
is on YouTube.

Re: [Frameworks] mental problems

[Andy Ditzler]

Scorsese's The Last Temptation of Christ (Christ's dream while on the cross)
Kubrick's The Shining (Nicholson's conversations with the bartender)
The final scene of La La Land might qualify, it's more a reverie than a
hallucination
The Wizard of Oz ("There's no place like home...")
The climactic dream sequence in Horace Ove's Pressure
The various nightmares in Bunuel's The Discreet Charm of the Bourgeoisie
(including one where the characters sit down to dinner, only to realize
they're on a theater stage and can't remember their lines)

These examples depict dreams, nightmares, hallucinations, inner states
etc., but I'm not sure they *visualize *them (as does Kubrick's *2001*).
I'm having a harder time thinking of narrative feature films that do that.
Perhaps a better example is Kieslowski's theatrical version of A Short Film
About Killing, which was filmed with green filters that highlight the
psychopathy of the protagonist.

I've recently learned that Ben van Meter's Acid Mantra was feature-length
(and projected multi-screen) in one of its original iterations.

Re: [Frameworks] mental problems

[Gisèle Gordon]

One of the most brilliant films I have ever seen in capturing mental
breakdown/hallucination/drug-induced psychosis is DARK ONE by a relatively
unknown video artist, Darryl Miller who worked on it in isolation on a
very old computer for over a decade in his home in Cupar, Saskatchewan,
Canada (population 579).  I only found out about it because I was on a
Canada Council council jury that he had applied to for additional funding.
 I later tracked him down and begged him to let us show it at Hot Docs,
where I was a programmer at the time.

This is the note I wrote about it:
"A drug-addicted poet searches for spiritual redemption as he cooks up
morphine at the kitchen table with his Auschwitz survivor mother and pet
bird. This brilliant, hallucinatory immersion into the psyche of Dan
Biholar, a soul spiralling into oblivion, pushes the medium of the moving
image about as far as it can go. Biholar vacillates between moments of
acute self-awareness, disturbing darkness, tender sentiment, lyrical
inspiration and delusions of grandeur. Award-winning experimental
filmmaker and sound designer Darryl Miller was once in Biholar's shoes.
With unsettling accuracy, Miller sculpts a sensory overload of hypnotic
soundscape and half-melted psychedelic imagery that submerges us in
Biholar's altered states. There is no safe distance from which to observe
this visceral blurring between art, psychosis and reality - let's hope our
sanity returns when the lights come back on."
 
Darryl has put the film online now, below is the link to his channel.  I¹m
sure he would appreciate getting feedback about it:

I suspect there are exponentially more “mental states” movies than there are 
“eulogy” movies (and we’ve seen how many of them are out there), but I’m too 
busy to conjure up all the old/good ones that I know…
but I must mention  Imamura’s  The Pornagraphers.

Re: [Frameworks] mental problems

[Dave Tetzlaff]

I know the request is for features, [just about everything by David Lynch, but 
especially Eraserhead and Mulholland Drive] but there’s lots of recent TV that 
goes into “inner states of mind” with mentally ill protagonists: including 
‘River' [UK] about a haunted, hallucinating detective, the near-Lynchian [if 
Lynch had politics] conspiracy thriller Mr. Robot, and the beyond-Lynch 
weirdness of ‘Legion’ [a Marvel show, believe it or not]. All excellent too, 
IMHO.

Re: [Frameworks] mental problems

[Fred Camper]

I can't resist -- Otto Preminger's very crazy and widely 
disregarded/Skidoo! /has an acid trip. Supposedly Preminger took acid 
himself in preparation for the film. There's also a very great vision of 
some kind of dissociative insanity near the end of Edgar G. Ulmer's 
/Detour/.


Interestingly, I don't think you'll find much in the greatest mainline 
(i. e. not "derivative") "experimental" or "avant-garde" films, because 
they don't usually start from a basis in quotidian reality.The most 
unusual and "nutty" portion of Bruce Baillie's /Quick Billy /is arguably 
reel four, the imitation Western.

[Frameworks] mental problems

[Gene Youngblood]

Friends, I’m seeking recommendations of feature films with scenes that attempt 
to visualize inner states of mind such as breakdowns (Vertigo), nightmares 
(Spellbound), acid trips (Easy Rider) or any other kind of hallucination 
(Altered States). Ecstatic or horrific doesn’t matter. Thanks.
