Billy’s Mime (1975)
*Billy’s Mime,* part of the *Bloomin’ Human Series* by the Paulist Media Guild, is a surreal morality tale from 1975 that follows Billy and his imaginary friend—a mime—who serves as his conscience throughout their adventures in Venice, California. The mime guides Billy through various challenges, turning his errands for his father into explorative learning experiences with a moral twist. Set to an atmospheric score by Peter Ivers, known for his work on *Eraserhead* and *New Wave Theater,* the film brings a dreamlike quality to Billy’s encounters, blending whimsy with an underlying sense of the bizarre.
