Les Dents Du Singe

René Laloux's "Les Dents Du Singe" is a fiendish little animation about monkeys, teeth and bicycles. Filmed in 1960, in collaboration with patients, while working as an artist in residence at a psychiatric clinic, the film is a tour de force of primitive scrawl and absurd drama. I hope you enjoy.

    Hey, Wow! Weird. This film was put on the same VHS tape as those J.N. animations. I still plan to transfer those for you one day.

    I'd love to see those Michael! Can I tempt you with a soundpiece to speed things up?

    A fantastic film, really!

    Merci pour cette indication qui n' est certes pas une posologie!
