Saw Roberto Rossellini’s #Socrates. One of these, though not included here: http://bit.ly/1QeoGvP
#Socrates. Crazy Rossellini. All this scrupulous preparation & elaborate production, all this trouble & expense …
… and then such perversely plied alienation effects (à la B.Brecht) to inhibit our access & enjoyment …
… Damned, then, if it doesn’t still conclude quite movingly, & even shatteringly.
#Socrates is on Hulu +, by the way. The Messiah next, please.
#Socrates. Its terms, not yours. Requires different eyes, & ears. Very rigourous, very salutary, if you decide to hang in there.
#Socrates. Jesus parallels very striking, by the way.
