"My moving-visual response to William Blake's "The Marriage of Heaven & Hell," this hand-painted film seems the most rhythmically exact of all my work: it was inspired by memories of an old man coughing in the night of a thing-walled ancient hotel... a triumph of rhythm thru to inspiration. Dedicated to Bill and Stella Pence." - S.B. "Although it was later incorporated into The Dante Quartet in 1987 in a slightly modified form, this film was initially completed in 1983 by Brakhage, and prints exist of the standalone version, which features main and end titles, and a small amount of additional material at its very beginning, including a few small film flares and two frames of a leader lady (which are part of the film, but were removed in 1987)." - Mark Toscano
