The Birds Of Paradise Trailers

This is a hand-painted work which involves a variety of colors applied within gouged and scratched shapes which approximate both swift shifts of bird-shape (legs, beaks and feather-spreads especially) and the Bird of Paradise flower-form as well, the former tending to metamorphize into the latter across the course of the work. Preserved by the Academy Film Archive in 2017.

The performances transcend the film's tropes, grounding it in characters that feel more complete than this subgenre often produces.

The movie runs out of plot and jokes well before the end of a two-hour running time, long for a light comedy.

An old-fashioned movie made with new-fashioned finesse.
