Skyscraper

About This Movie

Skyscraper is a 1965 short film directed by Adolfas Mekas. This film parodies Italian art films and was created for a scene in the Broadway musical of the same name, featuring notable performances by Pola Chapelle and Paul Sorvino.

This short film is relatively scarce, especially in original formats, making it a curiosity for collectors focused on Broadway adaptations and experimental cinema. The film's connection to the 1965 musical adds another layer to its collectibility, as it captures a moment in time when Broadway was exploring different artistic expressions. While it doesn't have the same level of mainstream attention, its distinctive approach and art-house sensibilities certainly draw in niche collectors who appreciate the intersection of theater and avant-garde film.
