[Frameworks] Literature and experimental film

[Kelly Gallagher]

Exciting topic! As a handcrafted cinema maker myself, my mind immediately
goes to Jan Svankmajer. Many of his films are based off of literary tales
and stories. (From writers such as Lewis Carroll, Edgar Allen Poe, Horace
Walpole, etc). Ah, and then thinking of Poe, I think of about Jean
Epstein's Fall of the House of Usher.
Best of luck!
