DESCRIPTION:\n	Bursting with color\, this program reconnects the avant-gard
 e queer sensibility of the underground with some genres in early film that
 —with their ornamental costumes and décor—anticipate some of the richness 
 of the underground’s camp aestheticism. Total running time: 140 mins. \n\n
 \n	Tit for Tat (La Peine du talion) \n	\n	  Dir. Gaston Velle. 1906. Franc
 e. Digital projection. Gloriously winged insects seek revenge for the prac
 tice of lepidoptery. Velle’s richly colored film is one of the finest exam
 ples of its kind. \n\n\n	Metempsychosis (Métempsycose) \n	\n	  Dir. Segund
 o de Chomón. 1907. France. Digital projection. The special effects pioneer
  Segundo de Chomón reinterprets a famous stage illusion in which a statue 
 turns into a butterfly fairy and performs a number of ravishing costume tr
 ansformations. \n\n\n	Puce Moment \n	\n	Dir. Kenneth Anger\, with Yvonne M
 arquis. 1949. 16mm print. Puce Moment pays tribute to the mythological Hol
 lywood of the Jazz Age and the perversely luxurious tastes and lifestyles 
 of such female sirens as Mae Murray\, Marion Davies\, and Gloria Swanson. 
 \n	\n	\n	The Pearl Fisher (Le pêcheur de perles) \n	\n	Dir. Ferdinand Zecc
 a. Pathé Frères. 1907. France. Digital projection. A deep-sea diver encoun
 ters marvelous creatures in an underwater kingdom. \n\n\n	Normal Love \n	
 \n	Dir. Jack Smith. 1963. 16mm. With Diana Baccus\, Mario Montez. 16mm pri
 nt courtesy of Gladstone Gallery\, New York. After completing Flaming Crea
 tures\, Smith shot the more ambitious Normal Love in dazzling color\, with
  elaborate sets (including a Busby Berkeley–esque multitiered cake made by
  Claes Oldenburg) and costumes inspired by horror films and Maria Montez e
 pics. \n	\n\nTickets to Friday evening screenings are $10 ($7.50 for stude
 nts and senior citizens). \n
