I don’t mind publicly posting about an unfinished movie project for fear that another filmmaker may ‘copy me’ — in fact, it’s either *that* or my material is doomed to remain in obscurity like all those old prints in the UCLA film vault. As much as I dream of shooting the picture I’m about to describe in glittering 16mm one day, I’ve come to terms with the knowing that I am artistically incapable of fleshing out the script by myself. No matter how many candles I light to prolific femme de plume Anita Loos or whether I’m utilizing a software or a scrapbook — it’s as if my past screenwriting gifts were at halt due to a somnambulant curse.
also if u haven't seen the 2002 madonna remake of lina's swept away yet you literally must...... i unironically love it and i think you may do so too (or at least enjoy it bcus it's drowned era world tour madonna!!!)
omg that makes SO much sense bcus the imagery of them w the 1920s-ish costumes and hairstyles looks so glamorous and like the brothel belongs to a heightened version of reality. thank you for drawing that parallel i haven't thought about love and anarchy in years!
I get wertmuller love and anarchy prostitute vibes from this as well somehow
