I love vintage looking hot air balloons and imaginative Victorian flying contraptions. In reality I think I would be rather terrified to actually ride in a balloon, but romantically it sounds delightful! There is a fascinating short film here if you would like to watch a creepy Victorian adventure about a man and his flying machine…
Here are some haunting movie stills from The Mysterious Geographic Adventures of Jasper Morello.
Is this a film that in production stages or is it now available. It looks wonderful – after having been at a hot air balloon festival last weekend, it has really caught my attention and interest!
This film came out a few years ago and if you click on the link it will take you to youtube where it can be viewed. It’s about a half hour and its wonderful. You can also purchase it through iTunes or directly through their website for better quality and to support great art!
Saw “Jasper Morello” on t.v. a while back. It’s an odd little film but so unusually made that you can’t stop watching it.
Those are really pretty vintage pics! Just saw the short film. It was so good and creepy! I love how it’s all silhouettes. Hot air balloons are so mysterious! :)
