| Fair question and one to which I have no answer. What I can say, and here I may have been unclear in my posting, is I wasn't actually thinking specifically or only of Porter's "The Life." (I haven't seen and obviously will not as it closes today, right?) Some of the reviews seem to suggest that might be what he is doing--that may not have been his intention (who can know intention--as Jung suggests, the unconscious is far larger space than we may think). As Octave says in Renoir's "The Rules of the Game": "That's the awful thing about life: Everybody has their reasons." |
