Just tapping in a quick note....there are a few new ones in the pics section. I'm about to head to the screening portion of my film analysis class. Today we're watching Goddard's Breathless and talking about other French New Wave directors. I'm very excited! By the way, I just found out today they made a compilation/documentary on Spike Jonze's work. I'll have to pick up a copy. I'm putting this quote up because I think it just about sums up my life:
"My father was a relentlessly self-improving boulangerie owner from Belgium with low-grade narcolepsy and a penchant for buggery. My mother was a 15 year old French prostitute named Chloe with webbed feet. My father would womanize, he would drink, he would make outrageous claims, like he invented the question mark. Sometimes, he would accuse chestnuts of being lazy - the sort of general malaise that only the genius possess and the insane lament. My childhood was typical: summers in Rangoon, luge lessons. In the spring, we'd make meat helmets. When I was insolent, I was placed in a burlap bag and beaten with reeds. Pretty standard, really."
So, what was your childhood like?
