FOR LIFE, AGAINST THE WAR @ AFA

  I read something about this film in the first issue of Millennium Film Journal, mentioned in the Ken Jacobs interview (I read this interview recently – that’s why it’s on my mind), and I just have some basic questions about it – I figured someone might know something about it since it’s getting shown at the Anthology at the end of February:
   
  What’s the name of the Jonas Mekas film in it (Jacobs describes it as a close up scanning of the preamble to the Constitution)?
   
  What Brakhage film is part of it?
   
  In the interview, Jacobs had a pretty disparaging view of most of these films – saying something like most were made by ad-men that were making weekend films to atone for their weekday sins. Are all the original films included from the program? And does anyone have a differing opinion of those films Jacobs is talking about (I assume he didn’t mean to include the ones by Hillary Harris, Breer, Snow, ect)?
