My Iron Lung



Faith
you're driving me away
you do it everyday
you don't mean it but it hurts like hell

my brain
says I'm receiving pain
a lack of oxygen
from my life support
my iron lung

The Man Who Had His Hair Cut Short





"There's always something fragile in me, deep inside me, which makes me feel the need to look at myself from the outside. Then everything becomes clear. But then... I'm... someone else. Then... 'I' is someone else."

Thunderstruck / Shoot To Thrill



1991

Vera Drake



"The thing about what I do is that, unlike any other filmmaker, I'm not looking out for properties or material to adapt. I've no interest in that whatsoever, because it's not what I do. It's about making up worlds, and you don't make up worlds in a vacuum; it comes from all over the place. Sometimes you don't know where it comes from. It just comes. And it comes from being out there and being around. I'm somebody that lives out in the real world."

Mike Leigh

Jean Cocteau



-True realism consists in revealing the surprising things which habit keeps covered and prevents us from seeing.




-Beauty is always the result of an accident. Of a violent lapse between acquired habits and those yet to be acquired.




-The ultimate politeness in art consists of speaking only to those who are able to uncover and measure its relationships. Anything else is symbolic, and symbolism is merely transcendental imagery.




-Art produces ugly things which frequently become more beautiful with time. Fashion, on the other hand, produces beautiful things which always become ugly with time.




-The day of my birth, my death began its walk. It is walking toward me, without hurrying.




-You’ve never seen death? Look in the mirror every day and you will see it like bees working in a glass hive.




-I have a piece of great and sad news to tell you: I am dead.

- I'd like to know, after such an exhaustion, what remains dead and cannot be restored.
- everything.
