“Tex” Production Diary – Day 3
Now we’re getting somewhere.
Day 3 was intense. We had a bout 20 cast and crew running around. Jess did his best to manage the chaos, but we had one pretty big logistical messup (sorry, Sue!). Apart from that and a special effects malfunction, I think it went quite well. We got [...]

Problematic Auteurs
So everything I’ve read and heard about D.W. Griffith holds that he was an unmitigated genius who did more for the art of cinema than anyone has ever done for anything ever, and other such superlatives. Oh, and he was also mind-blowingly racist.

A couple of quotes on Art
By two very quotable gay men.
The only excuse for making a useless thing is that one admires it immensely. All art is useless.
~Oscar Wilde
For Raphael, the creating of a work of art is a bright spring day in the campagna: for me, it is the tramontana howling down the valley
