Drunk in love with the 4 corners of the film frame and the unrestrained possibilities that could be

About Me

I got my first assignment as a director in 1927. I was slim, arrogant, intelligent, foolish, shy, cocksure, dreamy and irritating. Today, I'm no longer slim. - Michael Powell............Being independent is more about the state of your soul than your budget. I don't really care how a movie is financed or who produces it. An independent film is any movie that uncompromisingly expresses a unique, personal vision." -- Ray Carney, "Fake Independence and Reel Truth"............."A great movie is a movie I cannot bear the thought of never seeing again" - Derek Malcolm..............."That feeling of looking forward to something for so long, and when you finally see it it is even better than you were hoping, and you can't stop thinking about it. That's why individuals like us love movies, isn't it? The only thing better is when you don't expect anything, and the movie still hits you that hard." Vern.........."We'd be oversimplifying things in calling film noir oneiric, strange, erotic, ambivalent, and cruel." Raymond Borde........."Drunk in love with the 4 corners of the film frame and the unrestrained possibilities that could be contained therein" Harry Knowles..........."Film is history. With every foot of film lost we lose a link to our culture, to the world around us, to each other, and to ourselves." Martain Scorsese.........ok I am 25, an Air Force veteran. I love music but I do draw the line at country. I am studying to be come a master of the broadcastial arts (broadcast communication) then its off to get my black belt in film. WWAAAAAAA. that was my little ninja noise.I am down for true equality of all people, but I know that will never happen, so i will settle for govt. recognized equality for the gay community.quotes...i love quotes Sometimes I remember it one way, sometimes another. If Im going to have a past, I prefer it to be multiple choice...All it takes is one bad day to reduce the sanest man alive to lunacy...They told me there was nothing out there, nothing to fear. But the night my parents were murdered I caught a glimpse of something. I've looked for it ever since. I went around the world, searched in all the shadows. And there is something out there in the darkness, something terrifying, something that will not stop until it gets revenge...There are no more barriers to cross. All I have in common with the uncontrollable and the insane, the vicious and the evil, all the mayhem I have caused and my utter indifference toward it I have now surpassed. My pain is constant and sharp and I do not hope for a better world for anyone, in fact I want my pain to be inflicted on others. I want no one to escape, but even after admitting this there is no catharsis, my punishment continuous to allude me and I gain no deeper knowledge of myself no new knowledge can be extracted from my telling. This confession has meant nothing...The Valkyrie at my side is shouting and laughing with the pure, hateful, bloodthirsty joy of the slaughter... and so am I... My warrior woman. My Valkyrie. You'll always be mine, always and never. Never. The Fire, baby. It'll burn us both. It'll kill us both. there's no place in this world for our kind of fire. Always and never. If I have to die for you tonight, I will...There's a passage I got memorized. Ezekiel 25:17. The path of the righteous man is beset on all sides by the inequities of the selfish and the tyranny of evil men. Blessed is he who, in the name of charity and good will, shepherds the weak through the valley of the darkness. For he is truly his brother's keeper and the finder of lost children. And I will strike down upon thee with great vengeance and furious anger those who attempt to poison and destroy my brothers. And you will know I am the Lord when I lay my vengeance upon you. I been sayin' that shit for years. And if you ever heard it, it meant your ass. I never really questioned what it meant. I thought it was just a cold-blooded thing to say to a motherfucker before you popped a cap in his ass. But I saw some shit this mornin' made me think twice. Now I'm thinkin': it could mean you're the evil man. And I'm the righteous man. And Mr. 9mm here, he's the shepherd protecting my righteous ass in the valley of darkness. Or it could be you're the righteous man and I'm the shepherd and it's the world that's evil and selfish. I'd like that. But that shit ain't the truth. The truth is you're the weak. And I'm the tyranny of evil men. But I'm tryin', Ringo. I'm tryin' real hard to be a shepherd...
