Every season I'm constantly made uncomfortable because I don't know where it's going. Perhaps that is the nature of a reckoning.
Excellent call on the Bataille! I've been revisiting him as of late and you are spot fucking on. But I have to admit that Bataille still scares me a bit: his demand, I fear, is exceeds me in every sense. I agree with you. I can see how his demands are sort of terrorizing, maybe unrealistic. But I see his point. And then when I keep that particular point in view, which he keeps stressing in his chapters, I see why he talks about violence and Sade like he does.
With him, there is a whole language of desire, the inner, hidden movement within us which is nothing but a force of life. Because life and death, and all the opposites and paradoxes are always already woven together, but we rational men, who have the narrowest vision of all, fail to see this eternal balance of the opposites!
How Heraclitean of him! How wonderful! These pre-Socratics are indeed brilliant! The most human species on this planet! This is really beautiful — the best rendering of Bataille I've read, at once descriptive and performative. Post a Comment. I believe this was a challenge to Ringo to come ahead and kill him.
Answer: Doc was encouraging Ringo to breathe in order to prolong the glory of his victory. Answer: Ringo wanted the Earp's and Doc spitting blood Doc was urging Ringo to do the same. Answer: There was much speculation at the time that Ringo died from a self inflicted wound.
That scene was staged to show how he could have been shot by Doc but still end up in a position that it might look like suicide to those to found him. The urging him to walk forward was part of that. Question : I was wondering if anyone knows why the movie didn't follow the script? I read it and most of the lines are in the movie, but out of order. It seems if the movie followed the scripts it would have made much more sense.
Answer: Scripts generally have many, many versions before a final shooting script is produced, and even then, changes can be made during filming, and editing can also alter things. Question : I have two questions. Firstly, who shot Virgil and Morgan. I'm guessing it was the Mexican speaking guy from the opening who we saw hiding during the whole scene, but I'm not sure. And secondly, why did Wyatt pick up McMasters' red sash? Was there a reason?
Answer: Since we never see the shooter's face, it is left open to speculation as to who shot them both. Wyatt picked up McMasters' red sash because he realized that McMasters was serious about leaving the cowboys.
Answer: When Wyatt picked up the red sash, it was then that he decided anyone who wears a red sash is marked; marked for a reckoning that would soon come. Maybe that was also the moment that Wyatt realised that the "Cowboys" could actually be broken and ended permanently? Question : Does anyone speak Latin? If so, can anyone translate what Doc Holliday and Johnny Ringo were saying to each other at the Oriental? Question : In the film, at the theater house, everyone was watching "Faust or the Devil's Bargain.
Answer: 1. To serve Dr. Faustus for as long as he should live, 2. To provide Dr. Faustus with whatever information he might request, 3. Never to utter an untruth to Dr. The Devil agreed to these particulars, on the condition that Dr. Faustus would promise that after twenty-four years to surrender his body and soul to the Devil, to confirm the pact with a signature written in his own blood, and to renounce his Christian faith.
Question : In the first scene in Tombstone the cowboys are in Mexico and the people are preparing a wedding feast. At one point bananas are being set on a table. Were bananas available in northern Mexico around ? Chosen answer: Yes, bananas were introduced to Mexico by Vasco de Quiroga in the s. By the s, there was massive banana production along the entire Caribbean coast from Columbia to Mexico. Question : In the Vista Director's Cut version, inside the jacket where disc one goes, there is a picture of Josie and Wyatt at the creekside after their ride together, where Wyatt is on his knees hugging Josie's legs, while she is looking down on him and holding his shoulders.
Where is this in the film? Or, what is the dialogue? Chosen answer: It's not in the movie anywhere. Many times when a disc is released, there will be a photo shoot for the jacket and inserts.
They will often dress in the clothes, however they are not stills from the movie itself. Considering the others are fearless even in the face of danger, they should never have let him in. Answer: Anyone could join the Cowboys if they followed their code of conduct.
Ike's brother was a member and there's no reason for him not to be. It's not like it was the Marines who require an ounce of common sense. The Cowboys were hooligans, Ike being one of the dumbest.
