@deanduncan63Saw #Universe. We’re crediting it to Colin Low, but this is by the National Film Board of Canada, & the miraculous Unit B in particular …
… During its brief, bright ascendancy Unit B was practically cinema’s answer to the Scottish Enlightenment …
… Or, that what you Sassenachs thought was an irrelevant backwater was in fact the cultural & intellectual centre of the whole world. Take that!
#Universe. There’s a courtesy in it, a desire to give proper credit. But it’s also a commercial ploy, & an annoying vulgarity …
… Who cares if Ken Burns learned something from City of Gold? Or if this film inspired Kubrick’s 2001? The thing itself, on its own terms!
#Universe. Special effects? Godly creation, more like. Absolutely, inexpressibly awesome, in both concept & execution.
