Hi, Well said! Whether 'The Turin Horse' turns out to be Tarr's final film or not (some believe that he's not done yet and I truly hope that turns out to be the case), I think it will remain in discussion for some time. The film's surface simplicity -- it's by far the most spare, distilled accounting of Tarr's motifs yet -- belies a deeper moral and philosophical complexity that I'm sure we will continue to grapple with. The prologue is indeed very moving, and to me the tangible, quotidian reality that follows is no less so. I'm glad you liked my present. Hope you had a good birthday. :) Arsaib
