How One Handles Success Or Failure Is

Once You're Alienated, You're On Your Own. That Takes You To The World Of The Existential, Where Things Just Kind Of Float.

Groundhog Day Was Pretty Clean. It May Have To Do With Some Puritanical Feeling That Comedy Is A Forbidden Pleasure In A Certain Way. They Make You Laugh, And Laughter Is Somehow An Inferior Emotion To Tragedy.

If You're Doing Six Takes, Instead Of Doing Six Variations On The Same Words, Why Not Just Throw Out The Words And Make Them Up As You Go Along, If You're Comfortable With It? It Gives The Movies A Slightly Rangier Feeling, And More Of An Accidental Feel, But It Also Makes Them Edgier.

I'm Terrified Beyond The Capacity For Rational Thought.

The Child Says, "well Geesh, The Institutions That I'm Supposed To Respect - The Church And The Government - They're Telling Me Things That Don't Appear To Be True. Either I'm Crazy Or They're Crazy." That Creates The Absurd Child. The Absurd Child Is One Who Says, "well, I Think They're Crazy." So You Live In This State Of Alienation From Your Culture And Your Society And Your Family Because You See This Rampant Bullshit Around You.
