:10:00
lt lacks a cohesive structure.
:10:03
You get the feeling he's not absolutely
sure what it is he wants to say.
:10:07
l've always felt he was essentially
a technical filmmaker.
:10:12
Granted La Strada was a great film.
:10:15
Great in its use of negative imagery
more than anything else.
:10:18
- l'm going to have a stroke.
- Stop listening to him.
:10:22
He's screaming his opinions in my ear.
:10:25
All that Juliet of the Spirits
or Satyricon.
:10:28
l found it incredibly indulgent.
:10:31
He really is one of
the most indulgent of filmmakers.
:10:35
Key word here is "indulgent."
:10:38
- What are you depressed about?
- l missed my therapy. l overslept.
:10:42
How can you possibly oversleep?
:10:45
The alarm clock.
:10:46
You know what a hostile gesture
that is to me?
:10:48
l know. Because of our
sexual problem, right?
:10:52
Everybody in line has to know
our rate of intercourse?
:10:56
lt's like Samuel Beckett.
:10:57
l admire the technique,
but it doesn't hit me on a gut level.
:11:01
- l'd like to hit him on a gut level.
- Stop it.
:11:04
He's spitting on my neck
when he talks.
:11:08
You know something else?
You're so egocentric that...
:11:12
if l miss my therapy you can only think
of it in terms of how it affects you!
:11:17
They're probably on their first date.
:11:20
Probably met by answering an ad
in the New York Review of Books.
:11:23
"Thirtyish academic
wishes to meet woman...
:11:25
who's interested in Mozart,
James Joyce and sodomy."
:11:29
What do you mean
"our sexual problem"?
:11:31
l'm comparatively normal
for a guy raised in Brooklyn.
:11:34
l'm sorry. My sexual problem.
Okay? My sexual problem!
:11:38
l never read that. That was Henry James'
sequel to Turn of the Screw?
:11:42
lt's the influence of television.
:11:45
Marshall McLuhan deals with it
in terms of it being a high intensity.
:11:51
Do you understand?
A hot medium.
:11:53
What l wouldn't give for a large sock
with horse manure in it.
:11:57
What do you do when you get stuck
on a movie line with a guy like this?
