mostly my nostalgic and frequently puerile reflections on old movies, music and whatever pops from the recesses of memory....i have detailed memory of the oddest and more insignificant details.......these memories codify and indelibly emboss the past into my portrait of the future.......and a bit queer, to boot!
WATCHING THE 1979 FILM ADAPTATION OF THE MUSICAL PLAY, "HAIR"......I RECALLED A SCENE IN THE 1978 FILM, "1900".......THE SCENE IN WHICH TREAT WILLIAMS DANCES DOWN AN ELEGANT, FORMAL DINNER TABLE, MAKING A BIG MESS FOR THE SNOTTY DINERS, MAY HAVE BEEN REPLICATED FROM A SCENE IN "1900", IN WHICH ROBERTO MACCANTI, AS "OLMO", AND ROBERT DE NIRO, AS 'ALFREDO', WALK DOWN A WOOD PLANK PEASANT TABLETOP.....CAREFULLY AVOIDING 'STEPPING ON THE FOOD' AS HE TRAVELS FROM ONE END TO THE OTHER........THE SCENES IN BOTH THE BERTOLUCCI FILM AND THE FORMAN FILM BOTH MAKE STATEMENTS ABOUT CLASS SOCIAL BARRIERS.....
pragmatic sensualist, motivated by really deep instincts, actualized by willful imaginings and perpetuated by other's desires. Abstract, yet clear in purpose, honest, but abstruse, my moods change like winds and water with my confidences, and when ungrounded, i am both guarded and vulnerable, leaning, in darkness, to the Light, nurtured by instinctual feelings arising from a deep gene pool.
