I became interested in Trent Harris' work because of my interest in Crispin Glover, so I managed to get ahold of a copy of The Beaver Trilogy thinking that even if the film itself wasn't any good, at least it would have Crispin dressed as Olivia Newton-John.
And I was happy to find that the film as a whole was so awesome and stands on its own. Though I can see where some people with small attention spans and/or a complete lack of taste might have a problem sitting through its more quiet moments at the beginning, I find that the mark of a person with respectable taste can be found in their capacity to enjoy Trent Harris films.
This collection also makes a wonderful companion film to Rubin and Ed. Trent Harris is a great filmmaker who is completely underappreciated. I love The Beaver Trilogy.
