Hiya, everyone!

IT’S FRIDAY. YOU KNOW WHAT THAT MEANS!?

The weekend is here! Make yours a good one.

Any time I watch Funny Games (both the original and the US remake) I am always struck by Mark Kermode’s point: “It’s a two hour lecture.”

I don’t believe liking violent movies or watching them makes you crazy.

I don’t believe liking such movies makes you harmful.

If a movie can make you go crazy and kill people, you were probably batshit to begin with. You would have done it anyway.

Both films feel very empty. Like the director is grabbing at a moral point that was never there to begin with.

The ‘projective capacity’ of the reader has no correlation with the intention of an artist — the text isn’t a message in code from a source labelled ‘Dickens’ or ‘Robbe-Grillet’.… There is, of course, no ‘correct’ reading: we are in a world of uncontrollable plurality, not divining structures but producing structurations that are all our own.
