	The Only Beatnik in Levittown
		At first, at least on the surface, Ed appeared to be a typical suburbanite of his generation, a World War II vet taking advantage of Levitt’s "no down payment" offer to GIs, same as my Dad.
		Ed and his wife, Carol, were unlike the Levittowners around them in other ways, too.
		Ed’s upstairs work space was now transformed into a mini film studio, filled with all sorts of mystifying, technical equipment.

		Emshwiller came to film from a background of painting and science fiction illustration.
		In the film we see Emshwiller’s wife Carol walking through a wooded glade, with sunlight alternately penetrating the trees, and masked by them.
		The tempo of this on/off lighting increases as the film develops, until at its climax, Carol is consumed by a torrent of this alternating illumination–an image directly reminiscent of some of Emshwiller’s best science fiction covers when women plunge into a sky full of stars (and those women often were modeled on Carol).

	U B U W E B - Film & Video: Ed Emshwiller
		Ed Emshwiller (1925-1990) studied painting both in the U.S. and Paris.
		In the 1963 Totem, he wholly re-conceptualizes the Alwin Nikolais dance in cinematic terms, superimposing different viewpoints of the dancers, as well as such symbolic counterpoint as rings and fire.
		His 1979 pioneer 3-D computer animation Sunstone proved a genuine artistic breakthrough, with a technological subtlety of color and shape that gave the 3-minute metamorphosis of a face and a cube real charm, quite aside from its novelty.

		Emshwiller terms Family Focus a "family self-portrait, a stylized autobiography," which takes the form of an intimate collage of home movies, fl-and-white videotape and photographs that have been colorized, synthesized or otherwise visually transformed in an electronic mediation by the artist.
		The viewer is witness to the spontaneous activities and conversations of the family's quotidian home life, which is accompanied by Carol Emshwiller's ironic, often poetic commentary.

	The SF Site Featured Review: "Boys"
		In the above (actually transpiring as a dialogue with the below), Emshwiller raised many excellent points; however, her points occasionally miss the point of the reviewer's although their views of unreliability are not too dissimilar.
		When Emshwiller responded with a "yikes" and "unreliable narrator" (yes, the reviewer had heard of the unreliable narrator), he trusted Emshwiller's reliability and promised to reread "Boys" to find where he might have gone wrong and, if wrong, publicly proclaim his stupidity.
		Emshwiller is correct in saying all first person narratives are skewed, but by that logic so would all third person narratives be.

		The cinematographer Ed Emshwiller, once known as Emsh, used a hand-held 135-pound sound camera for some scenes, often composing superimpositions in the camera.
		The director Adolfas Mekas is the brother of noted Greenwich Village underground director and film historian Jonas, who is credited with assisting his brother during the shooting.
		My favorite scene was of the two escaped convicts dressed in their striped prison uniforms fighting a duel, which brought about a fit conclusion to the two lovers and their search for answers.
