Discuss Meshes of the Afternoon

I caught Maya Deren's legendary 1943 silent film a few months back in a DVD compilation of American avant-garde shorts, and I was impressed with it... again. Co-created by Deren & her husband, the film is mostly gently lyrical and abstract. I still haven't formed a very substantial opinion on what it's about, instead enjoying it on a less subjective level. Maya was a bit of an entrepreneur who "four-walled" Meshes around from theater to theater to show it.

Please enjoy Meshes of the Afternoon on this day. Peace.

The title of The OP had me thinking that you were making reference to the song

Eh, I did, although my post was inspired by today being International Women's Day. Kate Bush enjoyed a resurgence in popularity earlier this year due to "Running Up That Hill" getting airplay, so you are right.

Today is an ideal time to reflect upon just how much more electrifying this day would be, if around the nation we celebrated via swimsuit and wet t-shirt contests
