Thank you Pat, Ro...Thanks Arielle, we are all well.<br />Thank you Pat, Robyn and Katherine. And cheers Ben. It's a challenging film, but it engages the mind and that can only be a good thing. I like films and literature that explores the more difficult subjects or tell us something about human nature. Plot based films have their place, but they are against nature. As in false.<br />I didn't know Coetzee was a pupil of Wallace's. Very interesting. I don't know if I'll read DFW last book. I'm always skeptical of releases when the author didn't intend them to be released.Anthony J.

I don't think that the real pleasure in literature/storytelling resides into keeping the reader/viewer into his comfort zone. David Foster Wallace said a teacher told him once: "Literature comforts the distubed and disturbed the comfortable". He taught Coetzee in his classes.Benhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11483490020980574428noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2703135896090475473.post-17869571030966086352011-06-27T09:23:00.233+10:002011-06-27T09:23:00.233+10:00Thanks for the heads up on this movie..
