  1. Pues he visto la película "El Manantial" (King Vidor, 1949) y no paraba de imaginarme a Ayn Rand durante el rodaje asintiendo con la cabeza a cada frase panfletaria que soltaban los personajes.Como el Jack Nicholson de abajo.

  3. Proposal: a version of the speech at the end of the #AynRand novel #TheFountainhead, but instead of defending blowing up a public building, #HowardRoark is defending sending unsolicited #dickpics (illegal in many places now).

    (He would totally send unsolicited dickpics to Dominique)

    Waste: "A man is entitled to the sweat of his own brow!"

    Based: "A man is entitled to send a pic of his own dick!"

  8. The Brutalist: does the end justify the means?

    Before I dig down, trying to deconstruct the film’s foundations, first off, this was the most sensory impact I’ve had at the cinema in a long time. It sounds as big as it looks, and it looks breathtaking. Part of that must be the VistaVision, a 70-year old large film format, in this era of near-universal digital.. but the way it moved between these wide fixed grand shots, lit with the contrast and confidence of an old master, and super-close-up, soft-hued and grainy, handheld intimate sequences. You’re left without doubt of being in the hands of someone who speaks fluent cinema, confident to curve light like a potter does clay.

  11. @sourcerer That’s true. #TheFountainhead was originally published in 1947, though, so it’s not exactly “new.” Now would be a great time to catch up. 😁

    “Instead of callous climbers and exploiters, we find [in #TheFountainhead and #AtlasShrugged] individuals of integrity, purpose, and intelligence … who guide their lives by reason, pursue productive careers and take pride in themselves, their work, and their capacity to live.”

  33. @ricmac “By combining a distorted interpretation of #Nietzsche with a pretty accurate one of #AynRand, they end up with a belief that while 'God is dead’, the übermensch of the future can use pure reason to rise above traditional religious values and remake the world ‘in his own interests’.”

    The list from that editorial (sites.prh.com/modern-library-t) had a solicited correspondence from what’s now the Columbia Publishing Course. The latter’s director said at the time, “Our list reflects a young, more #feminist crowd. [It] shows a difference of age and taste.”

  47. In a world of cynicism and endless calls for self-sacrifice, #AynRand’s #TheFountainhead is a profound source of inspiration. Young people in particular need a “confirmation of the spirit of youth, proclaiming man’s glory, showing how much is possible,” as Rand observed.

    “There are very few guideposts to find. The Fountainhead is one of them.”
