catch 22
A light post tonight.
i was just reading an interview of the editor of Jarhead. Turns out the man is a veteran film editor who edited classics like "Apocalypse Now", another famous war movie. What was funny is, there is a scene in jarhead where marines are sitting together and watching "Apocalypse Now" and cheering the movie.
He describes it as feeling like he were in an M.C.Escher drawing, editing a movie in which the actors are watching a movie that he had previously edited.
For those who don't know M.C. Escher's work, hes a man who made fantastic drawings that played with perspective to create surreal imagery that made perfect sense to the eye on paper, but were impossible in real life. Heres an example. I'm sure most of you have seen these (its typical e-mail forward type stuff).
A post with no drama...i'm gonna publish this before i change my mind ;)
