Flatland seems like it might be neat. Even if it isn't, it's short at least. Though that makes me wonder how much there is to talk about in it...

Picture this: a camel goes into the desert of current thought, transforms into a lion and rules his own domain of authentic, creative truth. ...

Wow, just got back - it was pretty great. The directing seemed extremely excellent, though I'm not usually one that's good at pegging such things. I can see how it was a bit confusing. Sometimes I would mentally pause and think "Okay, where precisely are they now?". I also loved Joseph Gor...

Though apparently that one act of kindness put him in the asylum. I guess he wasn't a man meant for caring.

I *am* going to watch it today (we tried yesterday but it was sold out). I'll let you know what I think - I'm pretty excited!
