... that Stan Brakhage's film Sirius Remembered shows the decomposition of the corpse of his family's dog? Source: "Ten (Alternative) Films and Videos on American Nature": "When the Brakhage family dog, Sirius, was killed chasing a car, Brakhage carried the corpse into the woods near his home in Princeton, New Jersey. The frozen ground made burial impractical, and Brakhage decided to allow the corpse to decay naturally - and to elegize Sirius in a film. For several months, from winter and into spring, Brakhage returned to the decaying body, filming it generally from mid-distance."

Created by Hinnk (talk). Self-nominated at 09:18, 29 February 2024 (UTC). Post-promotion hook changes for this nom will be logged at Template talk:Did you know nominations/Sirius Remembered; consider watching this nomination, if it is successful, until the hook appears on the Main Page.[reply]

Article is new enough and long enough. It is well-sourced, presentable, neutral, and BLP-compliant. Earwig looks fine. The hook is cited and interesting. Some in-article context about who "Jane" is would be nice. QPQ has not been done, but this should be good to go once it is. We're in "unreviewed backlog mode", so an additional QPQ would be appreciated. gobonobo ⁺ ^c 22:53, 14 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
