Last night, I went to see a screening of the epic 1965 experimental film by Stan Brakhage, “Dog Star Man”. While hanging out with other film nerds after the screening, I found out that Stan Brakhage has a small part in Trey Parker and Matt Stone’s student film “Cannibal! The Musical”, about Colorado historical figure, Alfred Packer — a gold miner convicted of eating his fellow prospectors. (Parker and Stone were film students at University of Colorado while Brakhage was a professor there.) 

Just before I pressed “play” on “Cannibal!”, this Onion piece showed up.

I love it when all the pieces fall into place.

Screened by Dominic Angerame. Personal print, given to him by Brakhage.

It’s everything you would imagine a film written, directed, distributed, and starring Timothy Carey would be.

Stunning safety print struck from the original camera negative. Sternberg really does know how to shoot a scene. Extra half point for the cinematic experience.
