I watched the film, Steppenwolf the other night and I enjoyed it more that I thought I would. It is often difficult for me to suspend criticism when I see a film version of a book so recently read. The magic theater scenes were dated by their early '70's special effects. It is so easy to achieve that solarized look in photoshop and I am not sure that I would want to.
What really excited me was the animated portion of the "Treatise" produced by Czech artist Jaroslav Bradac. So I will add Steppenwolf to my list of "Favorite Films with Collage" along with White Oleander (which has more assemblage than collage, actually) and The Day of the Locust.
