Dirge: The Existence of the Spirit is the Progress of Life
Does the body matter or the mind? Everyone has their answer. It's like asking which came first: the egg or the chicken.
Of course, the old man can't refuse a beautiful body. The body is very important to him. But is the body the most important thing? He can't stand mediocrity without his wife and children, and his life is inseparable from art and poet friends. These are all explorations of the spiritual world. The student, who has maintained a sexual relationship with him for 20 years,...

Elegy, Dying Animal. In Carp. I saw about this movie in Hormones, and came to see it, half of my body was bathed in the quiet afternoon sun, and half of my heart was warmed.
I have always fantasized about being a woman like Consuela, with a body that swims and slips like a young fish, golden brown hair and face, beautiful breasts, eyes and feelings that are clean and translucent like luxury crystals, and also, there is a person like A man like David, with a shiny and sexy bald...

This movie has been known for a long time, and I just bought it recently. I have read an article on Penelope before, mentioning this movie, and greatly appreciated Penelope's acting skills.
After viewing, I very much agree with Penelope's evaluation. Penelope is very beautiful, not only beautiful, but also very superb in her acting skills. She portrays women's happiness, melancholy, fear, and longing very well.
Although the plot of the second half of the movie ended a little...

I don't know what to do, but I have always been in love. After reading "Elegy" for a long time, I have been thinking about how to comment on this kind of year-end love and teacher-student love. The heroine Kang Sula is the heroine of the critic, artist, and heroine. Students, they are thirty years apart. The story begins with David telling the poet himself. David is an old intellectual who experienced sexual liberation in the 1960s in the United States. He flaunts freedom and independence and...

A very literary film. And it's the kind of movie that has a strong American literary character. But I just can't stand kingsley's big bald head superimposed on the big beauty's head. ....

Truly a work of art...so...
David Kepesh: [interview on the Charlie Rose show] We're not all descended from the Puritans.
Charlie Rose: No?
David Kepesh: There was another colony 30 miles from Plymouth, it's not on the maps today. Marymount it was called.
Charlie Rose: Yeah, alright, you mention in your book...
David Kepesh: The colony where anything goes, went.
Charlie Rose: There was booze...
David Kepesh: here was booze. There was fornication. There was music. There was... they even ah, ah, ah, you name it, you name it. They even danced around the maypole once a month, wearing masks, worshiping god knows what, Whites and Indians together, all going for broke...
Charlie Rose: Who was responsible for all of this?
David Kepesh: A character by the name of Thomas Morton.
Charlie Rose: Aah, the "Hugh Hefner" of the Puritans.
David Kepesh: You could say that. I'm going to read you a quote of what the Puritans thought of Morton's followers: 'Debauched bacchanalians and atheists, falling into great licentiousness, and leading degenerate lives'. When I heard that, I packed my bags, I left Oxford, and I came straight to America, America the licentious.
Charlie Rose: So what happened to all of those people?
David Kepesh: Well, the Puritans shot them down. They sent in Miles Standish leading the militia. He chopped down the maypole, cut down those colored ribbons, banners, everything; party was over
Charlie Rose: And we became a nation of straight-laced Puritans.
David Kepesh: Well...
Charlie Rose: Isn't that your point though? The Puritans won, they stamped out all things sexual... how would you say it?
David Kepesh: Sexual happiness.
Charlie Rose: Exactly. Until the 1960s.
David Kepesh: Until the 1960s when it all exploded again all over the place.
Charlie Rose: Right, everyone was dancing around the maypole, then, make love not war.
David Kepesh: If you remember, only a decade earlier, if you wanted to have sex, if you wanted to make love in the 1950s, you had to beg for it, you had to cop a feel.
Charlie Rose: Or... get married.
David Kepesh: As I did in the 1960s.
Charlie Rose: Any regrets?
David Kepesh: Plenty. Um, but that's our secret. Don't tell anybody.
[laughter]
David Kepesh: That's just between you and me.
George O'Hearn: Life always keeps back more surprises than we could ever imagine.
David Kepesh: You know for a Pulitzer prize winning poet, sometimes you display a remarkable lack of imagination.
George O'Hearn: That's why they gave me the fucking prize.
