Lot in Sodom (Short 1933)

Lot in Sodom: Directed by James Sibley Watson, Melville Webber. With Friedrich Haak, Hildegarde Watson, Dorthea House, Lewis Whitbeck. Lot in Sodom is a sensual depiction of the Sodom and Gomorrah story filled with sinewy and semi-clad bodies, delirious bacchanales devoted to physical pleasure, and a searing, cataclysmic finale depicting the fall of a city devoted to sins of the flesh. Digitally mastered from excellent 35mm elements. Lot In Sodom has its original experimental soundtrack by Alec Wilder.

“A highly stylized spin on the Biblical story of Lot–and I mean highly stylized, with a generous amount of avant garde tossed in. Lots of beautiful guys, but very sparse on gals. Supple and ethereal editing, yet put the entire thing together, and it doesnu0026#39;t make much sense at all. u0026quot;Lot in Sodomu0026quot; makes an Andy Warhol flick seem like a Doris Day feature. Unless youu0026#39;re wired radically different than most of us, Iu0026#39;d give this one a wide pass.”
