Am I going crazy or did this post appear before and then show up again today?
I'm assuming the first clip is from Rossellini's film? I've never seen that - need to do so.
Never saw Stripes either for that matter.
"bitter and belligerent selfishness"
Yeah... We've been pretty selfish and self-centered as a country, I think. Definitely belligerent. And maybe bitter because we can't keep going west? No more frontier to exploit? Hit the Pacific coast and realized we had to deal with ourselves. Couldn't just destroy an area and move on anymore. I don't know.
I still think it comes from the weather in England and northern Europe. Stay inside, guard your stuff, don't talk to strangers.
I had it up very, very briefly before. I'm surprised you saw it. I couldn't decide if it was just stupid or not, or if people would take it the wrong way.
Yes, that first clip was from Rossellini's film. I wish I knew more about him. I think I saw this movie when I was a kid, but I can't remember much about it. I liked the lighting in that scene.
As far as Stripes is concerned, you didn't miss much. A few chuckles here and there. Typical Murray-Ramis farce from the early eighties.
