DIRTY EYES assumes the position of a specific object
with no specific form
Cinema is not by its nature a metaphorical medium
but presents a visceral visual structure that allows
the viewer to develop metaphors in relation to
their needs & desires
The players are objectified & not in fact
open to empathy
It is always obvious that they are a
means to an end
Each passage of the day
from the middle of the middle of the middle of the morning
to the middle of the middle of the middle of the afternoon
to the middle of the middle of the middle of the night
has at that point in time no destination other than
with all due haste to bring continuity into a realm
of contiguity
Only at that point can hope be seen as a possibility
in the dawn & in the sunset
The concept of perception becomes a necessity
& in the end requires DIRTY EYES
