Intergalactic Zoo

Back in 1957, Mort & Millie loaded the kids in the back of the car and headed downtown. Mort drove while Millie shot out the window. The result of this magical family car ride is Night Driving, Mort & Millie’s first experimental film. Chicago’s vibrant nightlife is transformed to a soft-focus view of colored spheres.

Experimental film made by the husband and wife duo. The human form takes center stage, while The Electrosoniks (Philips Recording 600-047) set an other-worldly tone.

A boy who walks on his hands enjoys a different view of the world, much to the chagrin of the adults in the town in which he lives.

This sponsored film from Chicago’s Goldsholl Design & Film Associates captures the lively world of pre-1960s advertising through animation and collage techniques. As a filmic treatise on corporate identity, Faces and Fortunes explores the legacy and importance of “personality” achieved through the branding practices of industries, organizations and companies. The film was sponsored by the Kimberly-Clark Corporation, produced & directed by Morton Goldsholl, conceived by Millie Goldsholl and executed by Wayne Boyer, Larry Janiak and Millie.

Promotional film on the use, application, and benefits of photography and film produced for the Eastman Kodak Company.

A short version of Mort & Millie Goldsholl's Night Driving (1957) set to the sounds of Jazz Guitarist, Elek Bacsik. This shortened version was presumably sponsored by Philips electronic company and Mercury Records. As the final card states, this experimental visual film "offers a new experience in 'seeing sound.'" It went on to win a bronze medal in the Brussels Film Festival.
