Criterion Collection: Brand Upon The Brain! [Widescreen][Black And White] Authentic

In the weird and wonderful super cinematic world of Canadian cult filmmaker Guy Maddin, personal memory collides with movie lore for a radical sensory overload. This eerie excursion into the Gothic recesses of Maddin’s mad, imaginary childhood is a silent, black-and-white comic science-fiction nightmare set in a lighthouse on grim Notch island, where fictional protagonist Guy Maddin was raised by an ironfisted, puritanical mother. Originally mounted as a theatrical event (accompanied by live orchestra, Foley artists, and assorted narrators), ‘Brand Upon the Brain!’ is an irreverent, delirious trip into the mind of one of current cinema’s true eccentrics.
