[MARILYN BRAKHAGE]

Stan Brakhage's "Fifteen Song Traits" is "a series of individual portraits ... all interrelated" (about 29 minutes); other short Brakhage portraits include "Two: Creeley/McClure," "Hymn to Her," "Jane," "Worm and Web Love" -- and for a longer one (54 minutes), "The Governor" (Governor Lamm of Colorado). Also, "Sirius Remembered" (mentioned below) is a reflection on the decaying corpse of the family dog. But for some live animal portraits you might want to look at "The Domain of the Moment."

oh, to name but a few: 

Mr. Hayashi, by Bruce Baillie 

Jonas Mekas has many portraits embedded within his longer works 

Shigeko Kubota has portraits (see EAI) of George Maciunas, George Maciunas With Two Eyes 1972, George Maciunas With One Eye 1976 ; her own father ( My Father ); and of Nam June Paik. 

Brakhage’s Sirius Remembered 

The Flower Thief might be called a portrait

HI Frameworkers 
I was wondering if anyone could give some titles of films that are "portrait films" 
I am teaching at Hofstra U, and I am feeling stumped after assigning the kids to make a portrait film, on examples of what to show them. 
Just juggling so much, thought I would reach out for some help on at least on of my 100s of to dos! 
Anything, narrative, experimental, avant-gaurd, structuralist, montage... 
just that tells the story of a person. 
preferably SHORT FILMS! But CAN also be features too. 
Thanks.
