i am super happy for stan and happy that he would have
been pleased - my point is that
he would have been more pleased to be saying
"i got a huge chunk of change to paint on 35mm"
yes i remember him speaking of narrative in this way
- he was a very generous speaker
as i posted to adam
i am not against the ART of hollywood
more the politics and hierarchical adherence
(lack of knowledge of the importants of marxist
theory?)
as far as adherence with stans' metaphor
i think that the marriage of poetry and the novel
is successful in terrence mallick and few others
