Has Kenneth Anger been doing any films lately? Seems he's been pretty quiet for a while. J

Well, he's been sending cease-and-desist letters to Ulver! Apart from that, I don't think he's been doing anything productive. --Delirium 07:23, 20 November 2005 (UTC)

first film in 1941, when he was 14? How can this be?


He made a movie called "Mouse Heaven" which he is currently showing around.

[edit] New works

Kenneth Anger's done a few movies recently: The Man We Want To Hang (abt. the art of Aleister Crowley), Elliott's Suicide (about the suicide of musician Elliott Smith), Anger Sees Red, a stop smoking film, and Mouse Heaven (a film using old old mickey mouse figures). Also, I've heard rumors that he's been having mental health problems recently, including trying to strangle someone, but I can't find any sources other than gossip.

[edit] Beausoleil

I had heard the stories regarding Bobby Beausoleil stealing the Lucifer Rising film but I recall reading in recent years that Anger himself admitted he made it up, and that he hadn't even shot that much footage (most of what he had shot eventually ended up in Invocation). I can't find a source offhand, so I didn't delete it from the article. I should also point out that the source for that info in the article (an uncredited NME piece from 1977) is riddled with inaccuracies and misinformation. I'll return when I can back this up with cold hard facts.Closenplay 01:37, 30 March 2007 (UTC)
