Hi,
recently i saw the movie "Thomas Pynchon, A Journey Into The Mind Of (P)"
Its a 92minute documentary by the brothers Fosco and Donatello Dubini. Since
the film is a franco/german co-production of this year, some of you might
not
have seen it yet. I don't feel competent enough to give you a full review,
so
I'll try a little teaser.
Has anybody seen it anyway?
Please tell me what you think of it.
Ha hm...it was shown in a movie theatre, widescreen, with a nice Residents
soundtrack. a lot of well known and a some not so well known footage of the
usual suspects: JFK, A3-4..., Oswald, Pavlov's Dogs, Leary, von Braun...Some
faded photographs and distorted video captures of people supposed to be TRP.
Also some lookalikes and impersonators, lovers, hunters and fans. I like the
film pretty much, to me it visualises TRP's texts as well as his imagined
personae in nice elliptical pictures. So enjoy...
best,
Christian
