Amelia and the Angel (1958)

[Image]

A young girl (Amelia) is distressed and feeling guilty about losing the wings she was to wear in her school play. Then she notices an angel and follows the angel into a dark building. Upstairs in the attic, bathed in heavenly light, is an artist's model - the ANGEL. The painter ascends a ladder until he is out of shot - supposedly to heaven-and reappears to restore Amelia's joy with a pair of wings.

it is said he did a lot of acid, which helps explain why a lot of his later films were so odd. But despite the oddness they were all entertaining. The crazy man was a genius. :thumbsup

I haven't seen this one, thanks. :D

Bump.

The arch English narration amuses me, but the ending is absolutely ecstatic. I love it!

Available streaming with U.K. IP or VPN, with optional English captions:
https://player.bfi.org.uk/free/film/wat ... 958-online

(However, the BFI version is only a very slight resolution upgrade over the starfish file still on emule. There is another larger .avi also on emule called "1959-Amelia and the Angel.avi", but that one is a lower-resolution vhsrip.)

English regular and SDH synced to starfish21's file:
Amelia and the Angel (1959). English & SDH.zip

Huh, I was not sure the resolution uptick would be good enough to interest anyone. I actually had the BFI version downloaded before the original emule file finished, and I had watched the short on DVD years before.

As ghost approves, I shall Release the upgrade:

Why not? It's normal DVD resolution. Although we are in the age of HD, SD movies are still allowed to post. :lol: :lol: :lol:

Thanks for releasing.
