Eye popping colors painting pretty pictures; animation that flows and fluctuates like a great, surging sea; this is a brilliant little film, one that excites and amuses both the eyes and mind. With its beautifully animated, sometimes oddly obscene visuals and haunting soundtrack, this is a weird short to say the least, but it is gorgeous and entertaining nonetheless. There is plenty of fun to be had with this quick oddity as long as you have a mind open enough to embrace such a wild, experimental ride. There is no real plot, and most of what occurs is likely to radically bewilder and flabbergast the common viewer, any casual moviegoer whose virtually a virgin to avant garde cinema may dismiss this immediately as plot less, pointless drivel; however, if you greet the film's weird vibe with open arms, you may find a treasure of animation that is shocking, grotesque, funny, vulgar, bizarre, beautiful, heavily atmospheric, creepy, unique, engrossing, provocative, and fantastically original.

Have fond memories of seeing this as an opener for a mid-career Fellini flick. Everyone in the audience was spellbound. The imagery challenges you to metabolize it, somehow, and surely some of it stubbornly refuses to give up any secrets.Was enormously impressed with the scene in the theater. It's a thought- provoking representation of a relationship between an idealized artist and an idealized audience.

"Asparagus" is an American short film from 1979. The writer and director here is Suzan Pitt and it is certainly still her most known work. The movie runs for 20 minutes approximately and takes us on a journey with a woman who decides to go out and spend an evening at a theater and other locations. But before she goes, she bakes sure the bowels are empty and we graphically see that, only that what comes out of her butt is not the usual, but it's lots of asparagus. That's why the title, I guess. And this motive is repeated on some other occasions. Near the end, for example, she sucks on an asparagus as if it was male genitalia. That should already tell you the tone of this film. Yes it is animated, but it is certainly not a good watch for very young audiences. Then again, it is probably also not a good watch for grown-up audiences. I myself liked very little in here. The animation was fine, but in terms of story, it felt really empty, just going for cheap thrills, but not a convincing or interesting plot. Thumbs down from me and, judging from this one, I am not surprised Pitt did not make it bigger in the decades since this came out.

I found the images to be insightful, and was glad to see that the director was not afraid to portray the feminine in depth. It's very hard to explain, since this short is an abstract, but I enjoyed it thoroughly. Some people may be uncomfortable with the overt sexual imagery, though, especially the scene in the garden.
