Drawing Restraint 9

Post by **dmmh** » Thu Mar 30, 2006 9:00 am

ok, this really looks different from anything I have seen before....

The core idea of Drawing Restraint 9 is the relationship between self-imposed resistance and creativity, a theme it symbolically tracks through the construction and transformation of a vast sculpture of liquid Vaseline, called “The Field”, which is molded, poured, bisected and reformed on the deck of the ship over the course of the film.

really looks brilliant to me

Too weird. I can handle weird things, but when it makes absolutely no frickin' sense then I don't see what's so brilliant about it.

At the end of the movie, it will probably make sense, at least, that's what I'm hoping for

Fuck if I'm watching a movie with Bjork in it.

The second the trailer started I thought: "Oh no this must be Björk-related."

And sure enough there she is. No thanks.

Looks good in the trailer but it will probably be kindof dull as a full length movie. All the supposedly deep symbolism in Barney's work can't make it entertaining.

He strikes me as a bit of an elitist really, I'm surprised he's putting this movie out on general release. I wouldn't expect it to make sense in the end, either.
