Johnathan Glazer, Oscar winning Director of The Zone of Interest, a movie depicting the wickedness of apathy during the Holocaust:
“Our film shows where dehumanisation leads at it's worst. It shaped all of our past and present. Right now we stand here as men who refute their Jewishness and the Holocaust being hijacked by an occupation which has led to conflict for so many innocent people, whether they be the victims of October 7th or the ongoing attack on Gaza. All the victims of this dehumanisation. How do we resist? Alexandria, the girl who glows in the film as she did in life, chose to. I dedicate this to her memory and her resistance.”

the postcard for september in the postcard club!
festen as inspiration for succession makes total sense and i've heard so much said about succession's style, but to me, these deliberate zoom-ins, the messy handheld mock doc type stuff, it all conveys a desperation to capture the moment as it is, since the present is the only reality, since the past as a rule is always ambiguous and unreal. a home movie but (like festen) the parts that are very unfortunately happening right now. the past has and can be rewritten but what actually takes place in succession as we see it cannot be refuted because we're witnesses. our participation is definitely a part of this. and the camera knows all of this, its work enhances this sense of fleetingness. there's such a sense of now, of presentness because the present is all we have to make sense of in this story.
