The Cup and the Lip

N/A

1986

21 minutes

Summary

The Cup and the Lip is a complex and challenging picture that will stimulate adventurous filmmakers for years to come. Although its imagery is too dense, varied and fast-moving to be thoroughly parsed after one viewing, the film appears to be a regretful and perhaps sardonic essay on human frailty--and on the effort to stave off chaos by means of political and religious institutions, which carry their own dangers of social control and mental manipulation. - David Sterritt, Christian Science Monitor. Preserved by the Academy Film Archive in partnership with Estate Project for Artists with AIDS in 1998.
