the barefoot contessa
"Life, every now and then, behaves as though it had seen too many bad movies, when everything fits too well - the beginning, the middle, the end - from fade-in to fade-out." - Harry Dawes
yeah yeah yeah went straight from africa to THE BAREFOOT CONTESSA and was spun into an obsession so hard i spent hours looking for something i will never find - what else is new.
hard not to fall into that tender trap.
luckily this was a long enough film i got tired over the characters after awhile, especially Jerry, especially when my obsession for lost footage of my old rats nest took PRECEDENCE.
what's the lesson? like scorsese says of colonel blimp:
"growing and having to let go"
why?!?!?!?!?!
ps - i'm not a big fan of wearing shoes either.
ava - whatastar
