For An Imperfect Cinema

"Imperfection brings about the capacities of art" - F.W.
So everyone wants to do a beautiful perfect movie. Technology is always improving itself to achieve perfection. Each time movies require more and more money to be made because they have to be perfect. Yet, it is in imperfection where value, talent, meaning, resourcefulnesses and, of course, beauty truly exist.

The phrase at the top is one of the many that my amazing Argentinean professor has said during class. Every time is like one of those moments where you just wished you had a tape recorder on you to drain the words and acquire knowledge and inspiration.

Alguna vez leí que la mayor belleza era imperfecta... porque la perfección es aburrida. En ese momento justo me fui a comer un chocolate... pero hasta dónde es poético el error? creo que es imposible saberlo, es hermoso o no lo es y punto. No hay más. Erróneo o no, sé que lo que harás será bueno... y con un profesor argentino bueeeeeeeeeno pregúntale que si quiere casarse conmigo.

I think..rememer that e-mail that talked about this guy and a jon application he made? and it was like really creative and poetic and chalala.. any way, sometimes i wish had a camera for every single bit of life thats going on around me so I could capture everything, but thats like impossible.. he said, he had this lense like eyes, and he had photographed every bit of life with the camera of the heart. On example of how impossible it is happened today, I love elephants, and i was driving to Tec and there was this huge i mean HUGE elephant waking down the street, as if taken out of a movie o book or just my plain head jejeje and of course, i almost crashed!!!! horrible, couldnt even see him right sniff.. gone to watch Nightwatch, be back in 2 hrs to tell you how it was, hugs
