Essential Brakhage: Selected Writings on Film-Making

Rating:
Summary: the best brakhage book
Review: After plodding through Brakhage's "Metaphors on Vision" as well as "the Brakhage Scrapbook" during my research on this amazing filmmaker, I was thankful to find Brakhage's most interesting and significant writings collected into this single volume. It truly is the "essential brakhage." Personally, I don't really think that much of what else remains in those OTHER two volumes (all those difficult writings and collections of artist's notes and confounding letters full of puns)is worth the reading effort for most readers.
