To all you Michael Pennington Aficionados

Here there is a wonderful interview with Michael about The Syndicate, Eduardo de Fillipo, acting and training as an actor - and in the final sentences he mentions something that gets me very excited indeed, oh I wish so much for it to happen, King Lear! Enjoy

The Irascibles - iintérésting continued

Why didn't I think of this much earlier?! In addition to this , here are The Irascibles.

I'm especially fond of the man in the very middle, the eye of the storm!

Tuchfühlung - Langenberg

plus hysterical gay laughter

All the world's a stage

Nightwatching - The Act of Recognition

I've been thinking a lot about eroticism for several reasons. What I've come to find is that it can but happen when people start perceiving the other/ the fellow as a completely different entity. There is no way you can even touch this but for the miraculous moment when we recognise each other. And in this way the biblical metaphor of "recognition" ceases to be one, the veil is withdrawn, and the recognition becomes the act of conception. To Freud eroticism is the life-giving principle. (Solness and Hilde must feel the same btw)




This is my erotic song for the day. Just like splitting the money and seeing it through...

Wide Difference continued

No comment ;D

Wide difference - C'est la Differance

Where I was taught of your chaste daughter the wide difference 'twixt

amorous

and

villanous

I'd love to see Martin Freeman in a classical Screwball Comedy - it don't mean a thing if it ain't got that swing

Returning again to Swinging with the Finkels and revealing the scene I really loved, which was the one on the bench with the dog interspersed with this silly flashbacks - I was not sure if it was Grunge or the 70s but the wig was very weird. Here I had the idea that Martin was altogether in a different movie, something more romantic or screwball. Now this song came to my mind, which proposes a certainly more interesting aspect of swing(ing) and one that would secure lasting passion. Hope for everybody to be lucky enough to encounter it in real life ;).

PS: There is a difference between sex and eroticism, though spitefully it is not well-observed nowadays.
