Portrait of Jennie

Directed by William Dieterle
With Jennifer Jones, Joseph Cotten, Ethel Barrymore
1948, 86min, 35mm

 

A ghost, a painting, and a love that transcends physical boundaries: this supernatural romance anticipates Vertigo as a New York City painter (Cotten) falls in love with an ethereal young woman (Jones) who may have died decades earlier. The atmospheric camerawork heightens the mystical mood, particularly in the delirious, green-tinted hurricane climax.

 
The Dragon is the Frame

Directed by Mary Helena Clark
2014, 15min, 16mm

 

This experimental puzzle film is an elegy for the late queer artist Mark Aguhar that invokes Vertigo in its investigation of absence and loss.
