30. ROBERT RAUSCHENBERG, WHITE PAINTING, 1951. **NO FILM POST THIS WEEK**
i am behind in film viewing. i feel a big white space. i've been developing blisters in the garden, i've had my nose in a book reading hazy and bone slicing descriptions of the bloody hallucinations and pits of war, i've been lazily staring at the wall semi-paralyzed at all that needs doing. it's time to catch up. i realized late last night that it was my week to post and rather than put another stone on the grand pile i've been collecting of things past due, i thought it better to re-up. i am watching too much of the wire. no, there is no such thing.

i am wholly sympathetic. it is only because we have no more sopranos to watch that i was able to see this week's film, and i am determined to let go of tv for awhile so i can focus! i need to go back and see the last metro, too--we had to return it before i got the chance to watch.
black orpheus is a lively, beautiful thing, though; i hope you like it, too.
happy watching :)
yea, i only saw half of the last metro. was trying to make it happen one morning, but didn't get through. i really loved the colors (browns and deep reds), not quite sure about the rest. have to revisit. and then black orpheus is sitting on the counter in the little red envelope. by the end of the week, i'll be 1. done w. the wire and 2. caught up w. black orpheus, ready for your next post!
