Calexico - Go Ask Alice - A Short Film By Katworks - Music by Calexico

Careening your way past any possible last stop, you notice a small black and white tv in a booth in the back of the coffee shop in the dark. You push the on button and drink your coffee and start watching. The film is inspired by a poem by Mark Erickson 'Go Ask Alice' she was like the fire searing moments of electricity carried in her purse notes of the underground writing scribbles in between the pages, she knew the names of everyone she ever met making small paintings on paper swirling kaleidoscopes of thoughts and passion the day always dimmed when she left, she took her heart on the road met strangers left donations sat quietly on park benches watching the days go slowly by, very late in the day she often thought she was Alice loved to say "go feed your head," loved to walk alone in the forest bringing back small animal skulls she found along the way, left the bones in her yard to bleach in the sun drank Absinthe and sugar cubes with a straw smoked Cubans and blew smoke rings out into the fog
