Exactly what the full title says it is! Rare these days, but true here. I found the reading of it consistent with other versions and interpretations I’ve read. Barnes is refreshingly open and up front about his motives and suggestions and where he sees the ideas here fitting into a larger spiritual landscape. Definitely recommend for those getting interested in mysticism and esoterica. His Hermetica 101 is good, too.
Somehow feels like a hilarious combination of Michael Haneke and Wes Anderson. Roy Andersson is a new director to me and I can’t wait to see more of his work. Feels like Dan Clowes’s Eightball material more than the actual film adaptations do.
This had to be an influence on the Night on Bald Mountain/Ave Maria section of Fantasia.
I’m not sure how I’m just now discovering the discography of Peter Ivers, the composer behind the songs in Eraserhead. Glorious.
