Auteur, yes, but what of?
- Andre Bazin
It's hard not to quote film theorists when all you've been doing for the past three hours is reading film theory. I'm working on a paper discussing Guillermo del Toro's role as auteur in The Devil's Backbone and Pan's Labyrinth. Interesting terrain to cover about a director equally as interesting. It's technically supposed to be a short response paper, but at the rate I'm going, I think it's going to be lengthier.
These days when I'm not writing papers for class (a second one, for another class, is due this Tuesday about Marcel Proust's Swann's Way in relation to one of the psychoanalytic texts we've discussed) I have been occupied with writing health/medical articles, doing research and conducting interviews for the nutrition/medical autobiography I am co-writing, and making some headway with VM. I also submitted my poem for entry into the Utmost Christian Poetry Contest last weekend, and winners will be announced in April.
Stay tuned for news about the official VM blog, aptly titled Vigilant Monkey: The Blog.
Do I sound tired? Way too concise for my normal self?
Maybe because I am exhausted. 2:45 AM will be an early bedtime for me tonight =P
