In my first year of undergrad, deep in the COVID lockdown, there was a windstorm that ripped through Portland. For a few days, I would look out my window and see trees swaying, silently but with such strain that it seemed they would be pulled from the ground. Some were. The day after it ended, I walked outside into a still world. The feeling of quietude so overwhelmed me that I tried to elaborate it to myself in a piece where I compared the world to a snowglobe that had been shaken and put down, and was tinged in its stillness with the dreadful possibility it may never be picked up again. I rewrote that piece a number of times, I doubt if I'll ever share it with anyone. Soon after, I decided, with greater intention than it seems like most people require, to start making friends. And for a while, I didn't think about that feeling of stillness at all.

It snowed. I figured that, in any case, life had come to a halt … that nothing more would happen … and that I should wait for the snow to stop and then melt. It snowed for a very long time. Four days.

"Eu, tu, ele, ela" (je tu il elle) - cinema.

Chantal Akerman reapareceu ao ter um de seus filmes no topo de uma lista de melhores de todos os tempos. Não era esse, mas o "Jeanne Dielman". Com a atenção voltada para diretora, outros trabalhos também se beneficiam. Esse é o primeiro dela e estava curioso pra ver.
