Procrastination Theatre: January 5-6, 2012

There are a lot of things to say about Hunger and I really just don’t have the energy to say them right now. I will say, however, that although what Steve McQueen gets immediately praised for is the visual presence of this film, I think that what deserves more credit, and is maybe even more arresting, is his use of sound as a physical presence within the film. I think my favorite scene of the movie has to be that, like, five minute take of the guard cleaning up the hallway with a mop. The sheer sound of the relentless, even onslaught of his mop down the hall and back up again was incredible. Plus, okay, I’ve bought a ticket and I’ve boarded the Fassbender train (but I still don’t find him attractive.)
