quote of the day

“what interests me is the opportunity for all of us to become something different from what we are, by constructing spaces that contribute something to the experience of who we are.”

samuel beckett and buster keaton on set of film

 

i know beckett isn’t for everyone, but i still laugh out loud every time i read waiting for godot; and of course, what’s not to love about buster keaton? a pastiche of buñuel, gary baseman, cocteau and hitchcock with an impulsive disposition. film is a film to preserve experience and cohesively explore beckett’s paradigms through the movements of a silent genius. by sv
