heartbeatocean said:

While I admire Warhol's intentions, I don't know why anyone would actually sit through Empire.

Ace said:

I sat through two hours of it.

heartbeatocean said:

Why?

Ace said:

Well, one reason was that I was the projectionist. Another was that it was kind of a fun scene with people bringing pillows and blankets and stretching out on the floor of the gallery. And third, I wanted to experience the movie as it was meant to be experienced. It's a beautiful image and it's a meditation. You can see subtle changes, lights in the windows turning on and off, the change of the sky. I think I was there around sundown, so the light did change. I probably caught during the action. It also brings up questions of reality vs. art in a very fundamental way -- being that it all takes place in real time and the image is entirely unmediated except for the camera and the projector. Pure cinema. That's what I love about Warhol -- his work asks the most fundamental questions about art in a way that is very pure and straight forward. He is a genius.

heartbeatocean said:

Still wouldn't sit through it.


Still, if I must experience his genius by watching several hours of one shot, at least let it be Edie Sedgwick getting boned or something.

Ace said:

But don't you wish you could say you did?

heartbeatocean said:

No.

I think we should make it. I want the velvet underground set with nico singing and gerard doing his whip dance.

Anx said:

An al dente one no less.

retina said:

CarrieMpls said:

Anx said:

It would be so life-like.
