Film: Animation Brent Green
-
- Brent Green, Hadacol Christmas, Courtesy the artist
With a wobbly aesthetic and dry humor, Brent Green's homemade-looking short animations juxtapose real-life trials and tribulations with elements of fantasy and mythology, recalling the work of Bill Plympton and Mike Judge. But Green doesn't just show his movies — he performs them, along with a band of merry music-makers. Tonight at the Hammer, Green gets a little help from Brendan Canty of Fugazi, Jim Becker of Califone, Alan Scalpone of the Bitter Tears, and Rodney McLaughlin, a crew that creates a live soundtrack with fiddles, musical saws, accordions, and trumpets. Films include Susa's Red Ears, Paulina Hollers, and Hadacol Christmas, which shows Santa inventing his holiday while hopped up on cough syrup.
