ummmm. this must certainly be a thread re: Bunuel, right? I’m new here. “we all pee and we all poop” not true, girls don’t. (I do think that was ripped off from some dialog in “The Garden of the Finzi-Contini”. have had a cocktail and i’m alone so, may not have the spelling right but what i feel is real.
still thinking quietly to myself… okay, now i’m finished ) there you go! oh, don’t judge me. sometimes a cocktail is just a cocktail. i’m just a bad speller.
thank you, i’ll have exactly that. but i ‘need’ more than a martini! oh yes, it’s raining here now. it’s a luxury, an event! exciting and beautiful. Los Angeles in the rain, alone. very…hate to say it…noir.
‘like my martinis like i like other things, stirred, shaken sometimes even bruised. it’s all about using a rougher gin, say like Bombay.
“i like to have a martini
two at the very most
three i’m under the table
four i’m under my host”
certainly not absurd , i know, remember don’t judge me, sekzee, jr…i promise i’ll learn the ways of your blog. off to finish my…book. Yeah, that’s right, my…book.
and no, i’m not a blonde if that’s crossed your minds. and i’m a grown up.
Thank you for letting me intrude. i’ll be back, if i’m invited.
shake, stir and bruise… sans martini, sounds great to me! (I just had to respond to that. i mean, being a brunette and all, can’t just waste a good opportunity…to respond).
so happy you allowed me to insert my self in your conversation. it sounded like you might have needed a little estrogen. thanks
excuse me? did you just say 1100101111100001010010010000011101010000011111110101001010100101101011110010101111010100?
tell me you didn’t! please! i’d be so disappointed. I want more than that. so much more between us and them and… well that just couldn’t be all you can give. you seemed so much more in your previous posts, so much bigger, generous, kind. come on! give me more of 24FPS! don’t make sense, just communicate with someone as middle class and ordinary as I am. This may be enough for the rest of them. not enough for me.
Are you on here defining what should be cinema, what retards society and what limits imagination? what pornography does to us, to art, to imagination? Are you on crack? a member of the third reich? a religious fanatic? come on! There are no limits to imagination, period. To be able to experience anything and everything that doesn’t kill you but opens the doors of perception and releases one from the status quo, gives one different perspectives, contrary perspectives, compassion, passion, understanding, going beyond what society or academia or artists deem significant or correct is what one needs to aspire to. just want to understand your position. you seemed so strident.

Bigotry, abuse, intolerance, the suffering of anyone at the hand of another, pettiness, hate, these are ugly, shameful and unacceptable. We must be free to be wrong and fail and experiment. What you don’t like or don’t respect may be the proselytizing and propaganda you see in cinema, not the bodies and bodily functions of sexuality played out with no romance or subtly. Sometimes i feel manipulated by the filmmaker to make me, not feel a certain way, because i like that, but worse, to make me think a certain way, distort or force his/her values through a story and a particularly artful mastery of a medium. I feel myself lead there, to the filmmakers philosophy or value. I am constantly aware that, usually, in art and in all things free men make there is a sales “pitch”, and that’s okay, i can think for myself and i can take it or leave it, a point of view they want you to see, if it’s Scorsese or Renoir or Rossalini I love it, i’ll “buy” it. So yeah, the Lina Vertmuller’s are pretty profound in their artistry beware… The so-called " Degenerative art" of the modern world before the rise of the Third Reich was a response to the restrictions on another generation, classism or of an older “school’ of accepted and prized values in artistic representation of all kinds. THAT experimentation is what all thinking, thoughtful people might enjoy, might have to fight to enjoy and experience because all around us we are rewarded for our mediocrity and complacency. So we must actively seek out the ’ new’ or ‘difficult’ or the ‘unacceptable’ and ‘unconventional’ and even the vulgar and ugly, seek it out, it may be ugly and it may be embarrassing but it’s better than being sold a lipstick or 3” heels or a hair color, or a skin color which will make us “better people”. I want gritty and painful and disgusting if it helps me empathize or sympathize or really just makes me think. i’m just sayin’…
have to comment about this last missive of yours NEH before i sleep. I dislike Robin Hood with a passion, think he’s a another piece of propaganda, very much like the church (Anglican or Catholic) take from the rich… i am a Capitalist! My Robin would sure as hell sell to the poor, sell something he had made not stolen. pure and simple. wish it could be pure and simple. I believe in the Value of ones work, whether it’s picking fruit or acting in porn. i respect the earners and have no respect only disdain for the takers. EVERYONE can do something to elevate their lives. To be given anything is to owe something untold, is to be suspect.. to take something for nothing has it’s roots in something dark and meaningless and debases the taker. Nothing is free… it just might not cost money.
now i wonder… there is relevant conversation, meaningful discourse. Does this render us the opposite of absmurd? Let’s make up a new thread a ’meaningful" thread! how fun! Red could still be blue with some purpleing. no?
this is too hard. i worked for 12 twelve hours today. i had 103 conversations (on my call list) and now i want to hear about film. and this is what i get? i am too immature and selfish for this thread. i need to be rocked and rolled.
Greaseman64: you are my hero for trying to make this fun for me. poof! a thread appears! i mean not since my dad has someone just tried to make stuff happen. on the internet nobody does.
Dirk Bogarde and Julie Christy are calling me. “Darling” is on and even though i have a DVD (yes I had it made from a beta I found in my Aunt’s closet) I still want to watch. what is the draw of this particular film? why are middleclass girls enchanted by the idea of control and being bought. being valued as an accessory. years of analysis and i still ask the question but never of film bloggers. so i put that to you… why? it’s not just me it’s women i know. are our dreams so small and so attainable? yes. so what is the draw of this film. besides ‘style’.
especially to NEH checking out imaginary porn! that is the best porn always. and it can be secre and scary just like the movie. some nite you’ll tall me all about it. okay…good night.I
greaseman64, Josh, the rest of you, AVATAR?i am underwhelmed. i am disappointed! all the seams show! there is only cartoon! The story is propaganda not a POV! headaches from the 3 D glasses make it painful. what to do? adsmurd me!
There really is an easy way to start the conversation! Be interested! Have an opinion but hear some one. i’m vulnerable. I’ve just given you all my opinion. Spank me.

it’s how one uses the word “daddy”. context is everything. I love it. Even if you’ve loved your father, every woman i know wants to be controlled. every woman i know is controlling in our day to day, so yeah, come be my ‘daddy’ and spank me! make my bottom pink! at the beginning of a tryst i love saying “what does daddy want?” because we often want to be led, taken THERE, we defenitly want someone to take the responsibility. . i’m just sayin’ sometimes it’s a good thing.

i’ll take “let’s let each other love each other” for 800.00 and all the e’s i can stuff in my purse!)
boys play mean
they shout and pout
and loll about
and men don’t play
in the light of day
but like to lay in hazy gray
girls are inbetween
not princess or queen
they love to play in hazy gray
they mold the hazy day from clay
then rule the universe after a long nap.
but they always say ‘good night’.
