  From the Clouds to the Resistance 1979

  Watched 15 Mar 2025

  inaugural straub-huillet, i long for political cinema like this, even in the absence of synthetic emotion and dramatics, the love for people and wanting to resist for the sake of living shines; i love movies that are two movies, and six scenes of myth made looking forward and back cannot be more my speed

  matching up well with my reading of peter weiss’s the aesthetics of resistance right now in carrying through the thematics of myth

  is your core a switch that can be flipped ?

  first time with the director’s cut, there’s clarity, it sings, made a better movie out of an already excellent one
