Dames (1934)
Directed by Ray Enright & Busby Berkeley
With Ruby Keeler, Dick Powell, Joan Blondell
Run time: 91min
Format: 35mm
This snappy pre-Code musical confection features kaleidoscopic dance numbers courtesy of native Hollywood surrealist Busby Berkeley, including the show-stopping “I Only Have Eyes for You,” wherein stars Ruby Keeler and Dick Powell ride the subway straight into a geometric acid-trip involving hundreds of floating Keeler heads.
El Atlantis (1973)
Directed by Frank Kuenstler
Run time: 21min
Format: 16mm
This experimental short by New York poet Frank Kuenstler features footage shot in the 1950s of the now-vanished Third Avenue El, set to a soundtrack of Kuenstler playing a toy piano.
