在这部沃坦的苏醒短片片中,“布莱恩·德·帕尔玛拍于1962年的短片，为他赢得了奖学金，使他进入萨拉劳伦斯大学深造”De Palma’s first film was the mid-length Icarus in 1960. Two years later, he released Woton’s Wake , which follows the exploits of a sculptor who finds that a piece of his abstract art has morphed into a woman. The 30-minute flick, which ends with a mushroom cloud, won the 1963 Rosenthal Foundation Award.
Woton Wretchichevsky has a disfigured face, dresses in cloak and mask and stalks couples to burn them with a blowtorch. He is also a sculptor of steel and garbage installations. One day one of his creations comes alive in the form of a young woman. She flees him when he tries to express his love by pointing the blowtorch at her. She hides in a house where some kind of orgy or happening is going on.
