The Cube (Jim Henson, 1969)

[Fitzcarraldo]

On February 23,1969, a Sunday afternoon, the anthology show NBC EXPERIMENT IN TELEVISION aired a one-hour teleplay by Jim Henson, then best known for being the man behind "Ralph the Dog" on the JIMMY DEAN SHOW. This unique film, titled simply THE CUBE, starred Richard Schaal as a man trapped in a white cubical room. He had no idea how he got there or where it was. And although anyone could enter, he couldn't leave....

In 2002 I posted the original IMDb comment on THE CUBE and started the long struggle to expand the credits on this long-lost, long-forgotten classic. Soon other IMDb users were regaining their memories of this odd but invasive show. After a few months of this it seemed a good idea to create a common place to share thoughts, memories, and discoveries about THE CUBE.

And another place online where you can show people and go AH-HAH! SEE! I TOLD YOU IT EXISTED!!!!

In the three years of existence, we've gone from the barest of information online to full cast lists and a reconstructed script. Next, actual screen images from THE CUBE. Come join us! Feel free to add anything you want, anything you can find, from personal thoughts to actual files and images!

So I guess it seems this is truly very very very rare. Enjoy this metaphysical film of the guy that made the muppets

Por si queréis algo más de este buen hombre, me bajé este corto hace un tiempo. Si no hay fuentes avisad:



TIME PIECE

Sinopsis:
Durante la primavera de 1964, Jim Henson empezó a trabajar en un film de 8 minutos y medio titulado Time Piece. Jim escribió, dirigió y protagonizó este corto experimental, un drama cómico repleto de luz, con los toques de humor inherentes a toda su obra. Tal y como afirmó la prensa en su momento, "Time Piece es la historia de Everyman, frustrado por las tareas típicas de un día típico."

Thank you Fitz for another ZXZ movie ...

Y gracias tambien Lapsus ( entre otras muchas cosas ) por apuntar el corto ...

Bajando ambos.

Nota: El corto tiene por ahora 2 fuentes completas para un total de 5 fuentes ... bueno, cosas peores hay

Postdata: Esto no viene a cuento, pero por alguna razon la pelicula me ha hecho recordar "Le revelateur" de Philippe Garrel ( que junto a "La cicatrice interieure" son de mis peliculas favoritas ) y me preguntaba si alguien conoce/ha visto algun largo/pelicula de ese estilo concretamente o mas abstracto ( cuanto mas mejor )

Completado y compartiendo. Thanks Fitz
