Isaach De Bankole said the story in The Limits of Control is not symbolic

L to R: Moderator from Museum of Arts and Design, "Behind Jim Jarmusch" director Lea Rinaldi, actor Isaach De Bankole, 4/29/11, NYC Let me clarify that title above - of course anything can be symbolic - can hold a meaning other than what is primarily presented in a given object, story, or person, but, what I wanted to find out was that as an actor, when faced with a scene such as the one where De Bankole's character tells Bill Murray's character in the fortress scene that he (the hit man/De Bankole) got into the well guarded facility using his imagination, was that statement in the script accepted as truth in the real world (of the movie) by him (De Bankole, the actor, in playing the character, as opposed to the scene being a dream sequence, a fantasy, or a symbolic/not-real scene)? De Bankole said it - the statement/the event - was real. Further explanation: my question to De Bankole was how exactly did the hit man use his imagination to get into the w

Lots of killing by people who have divided themselves into two competing groups (Sinhala & Tamil) after buying into race theory, one of the oldest & most destructive lies/tool of war & conquest in the world.

Perhaps the logic behind Limits of Control will be revealed in the doc about making of the movie

The doc of which I speak is called Behind Jim Jarmusch (not a great title in my humble opinion, but perhaps it has more meaning in French, most likely the native language of the director of the doc), and it is screening in NYC tomorrow night ( go here for info ). Looking forward to seeing it. Perhaps the doc will illuminate exactly what's going on in Limits of Control - the most mysterious - design wise - of all of Jarmusch's movies. Here are 3 clips from the doc, go see it yo: clip 3 * clip 2 * clip 1 * - S :: :: :: :: :: ADVERTISING New blogs for projects by NYC artist Katheryn McGaffigan:   Blog 1 http://katherynmcgaffigan. blogspot.com/ Blog 2 http://katherynmcgaffigan2. blogspot.com/ Blog 3 http://katherynmcgaffigan3. blogspot.com/ Blog 4 http://katherynmcgaffigan4. blogspot.com/ Blog 5 http://katherynmcgaffigan5. blogspot.com/ Blog 6 http://katherynmcgaffigan6. blogspot.com/ Blog 7 http://katherynmcgaffigan7. blogspot.com/ Blog 8 http://kather

What's up with all the Elvis Mitchell hate?

Here's Anne Thompson's reaction to a fellow film critic losing a job, pretty evil. That's just one of a dozen similar articles out there. But on the bright side, here's Kim Voynar's reaction to the firing, pretty classy. Anyway, back to the question - what's with all the hate re: Mitchell? Probably due to jealousy. So, the future (that's the closest I can come to a Source Code reference at this time)? Mitchell will no doubt land another great gig, his supporters & friends will be happy, & the haters will either keep on hating or work on their writing & other creative skills so that they too may be able to one day experience the kind of success Mitchell has experienced . Really, has Anne Thompson appeared in Entourage playing herself - or will she ever? I don't think so. What all this drama shows is that Mitchell is a genuine rock star film critic (perhaps the only one right now?). So whoever hires him next will benefit not only fro

Of course artists (for the most part) have always worked other jobs

But to some in the indie film world, this is a new reality - check out the shock & the sadness at this post by Ted Hope. Indie film, for the most part, is art film people. Anything art will always require financial support from sources other than revenue generated by the selling of the said art (there are some exceptions to this view from time to time, of course). But, on the other hand, it is only a short walk from art film to entertainment/most Hollywood type filmmaking - so, make a genre film every once in a while, distribute it, & see if u can pay some bills with the $s gained. Anyway, everyone dies eventually, so might as well spend your time on Earth doing something that you love or at least enjoy a lot. So, if indie filmmaking is your choice for that, then enjoy it, & if you gotta have some day jobs in order to make it happen, then enjoy that part of being an indie filmmaker also. - S :: :: :: :: :: ADVERTISING New blogs for projects by NYC artist Ka
