"especially those long corridors ... 'corridor metaphysics', is what the french
call this condition." (p. 394)
that's what the critic, rich quoted some weeks ago, meant. now i remember the
french film, this is probably refering to. it's by alain resnais & called
"l'année dernière à marienbad" [1962]. indeed, one long meditation on corridor
metaphysics. not without effect. but then i like kubrick's tracking shots
better ... kfl
