Back to the source [I Have Thoughts]

Beginning the day with Nuri's Palme d'or winner Winter Sleep, nice and slow and long, it to me calls for closer scrutiny, makes me want to seek out art cinema of that region, where things are so different seemingly from other places where for example the people keep it all beneath the surface Fargo style, in Turkey and around there it's like they wear their emotions more close to the surface.

Do i know what i'm talking about? No, of course not. But maybe it's a link in a chain of thoughts that could lead to something more substantial.

In Winter Sleep a kid throws a stone at a vehicle breaking a window, the adults catch him and bring him home and the dad is all like i'm gonna kill you, to the vehicle guy. It's that, tumultuous emotions rising to the surface.

Yesterday was dabbling with mass North American entertainment, and all that is fine, but it's this other kind of experience where it really is by and about a difference, an immediate difference, that only once you get to know it better does the universalism appear to the mind's eye.
