The movie, Across The Universe came out on DVD today. It is so full of artistic/altered/collage inspiration. The creativity this movie inspires is amazing. I love the way the music was matched with the story and the artwork/costumes and cinematography all goes together so fantastically.
The special features that come on the dvd show some of the masks and costumes up close. This movie is such a collaboration of different types of contemporary art. The historical aspect of the Vietnam war included in the story line just makes for an explosion of emotion and color.
The director/creator (Julie Taymore) has such a visual mind to have put these ideas all together so creatively. PHENOMENAL!I have already watched it twice today and have started a collage inspired by some of the masks, by strawberries and bombs, by circuses and tie-dye.
Now run, run, run to the video store!
