Slow Machine (2020) - Joe Denardo and Paul Felten

The Life With a Hole in It - Philip Larkin

When I throw back my head and howl People (women mostly) say But you've always done what you want, You always get your own way - A perfectly vile and foul Inversion of all that's been. What the old ratbags mean Is I've never done what I don't.

So the shit in the shuttered chateau Who does his five hundred words Then parts out the rest of the day Between bathing and booze and birds Is far off as ever, but so Is that spectacled schoolteaching sod (Six kids, and the wife in pod, And her parents coming to stay) . . .

Life is an immobile, locked, Three-handed struggle between Your wants, the world's for you, and (worse) The unbeatable slow machine That brings what you'll get. Blocked, They strain round a hollow stasis Of havings-to, fear, faces. Days sift down it constantly. Years.

Slow Machine (Joe Denardo & Paul Felten, 2020)

Push through life. Lines, parts, stories, improvised or written, always flowing, always making zero or complete sense, always leaving zero or complete effect. The feeling of watching the movie might be the intended impact of the movie. I might have to watch it again but I don’t really want to.
