My favorite thing about LR is when this guy in my class dropped a bunch of acid and went on stage during one of her performances and totally fucked it up. Then the cops came and arrested him.
Fuck that nazi broad. "oooh I had no idea they were slaves!"
Watch Tokyo Olympiad instead. It's better... Without the guilt!

baleen - 2009-12-08 Strong, flippant, ephemeral, meaningless

Lurchi - 2009-12-08 But have you seen her mountain films? Das Blaue Licht especially. They are all amazingly impressive, even if not "good." I mean really impressive. And then there's the Guy Maddin mountain film pastiche, Careful.

I like how she started doing reversals after 3:00. Very motile.

This is less Fascist aesthetics than Hellenistic/Neoclassical.
A Fasces being a bundle of sticks, and stronger than single stick, fascists aesthetics emphasize communal motion. The torch marches and parade grounds are fascism.
This is just a celebration of athletic bodies. There are practically innumerable classical statues (and copies) it emulates. That Hitler had a fixation on neo-classical aesthetics is incidental. Italian fascism was more futurist, Latin American fascism more conservative.

Stunning, especially the silhouettes against the clouded sky towards the end.
