Anders Grafstrom committed his experimental Long Island Four to 8-millimeter. Somehow, the grainy, unstable film stock is ideally suited to his shadowy, sub-rosa story material. The plot, based on fact, concerns four Nazi saboteurs, who have come ashore in Long Island in 1942. At first dedicated to their sabotage mission, the foursome is seduced by the charms of New York at night. Long Island Four garnered a great deal of film-festival adulation; alas, most of it came too late for Anders Grafstrom, who died not long after the film's completion.
