Title: 
Stan Brakhage on commercial films and Luis Buñuel - Part 1
Description: 
Stan Brakhage discusses film artists who went on to make mainstream feature films, such as Luis Buñuel. He notes that words are able to convey the "facts of the story," but not the emotion, and thus, exaggeration and poetry exist to convey the latter. Brakhage also mentions the ways storytelling manifests itself in art and how narratives can be found in many forms. He begrudgingly compliments Buñuel for his ability to maintain some personality in his commercial films and analyses Buñuel's strengths and weaknesses as a filmmaker. Continued on 'Stan Brakhage on commercial films and Luis Buñuel - Part 2.'
