"He slept that night in his own country and he had a dream wherein he saw God's pilgrims laboring upon a darkened verge in the last of the twilight of that day and they seemed to be returning from some deep enterprise that was not of war nor were they yet in flight but rather seemed coming from some labor to which perhaps these and all other things stood subjugate."
The Crossing, Cormac McCarthy

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.)
