Monster Road (unrated) Brett Ingram. Detail by detail, scene by scene, director Brett Ingram delves into the extraordinary and fascinating psychological dimensions of underground clay-animator Bruce Bickford, now 57. Ingram weaves together interviews with Bickford with photographs and footage of his family, especially father George, a dominant influence who's now battling Alzheimer's. Best of all, Ingram intersperses sizable clips from Bickford's films -- stories of movement, violence, the little guy winning and, Bickford stresses, perfecting an imperfect life. Bickford is direct and honest in his comments, appealing in his insights. Self-taught, he began as an eight-year-old with sadistic fantasies about drowning Speedy Alka-Seltzer, became legendary working for Frank Zappa and brims with imagination to this day, continuing to work alone in his Seattle basement to create amazing films. Getting to know him is a pleasure. Screens at 8 p.m. Friday, June 18, through Sunday, June 20, with director Brett Ingram in attendance Friday and Saturday, in the Moore Auditorium on the campus of Webster University, 470 E. Lockwood Avenue. Call 314-968-7487 for more information. (Diane Carson)
