This is how the world ends was a pilot shot by Gregg Araki for MTV in 2000. You should watch it if you liked the Teenage Apocalypse Trilogy.

Valley Girl (1983) might be cheesy as fuck, but doesn’t that print remind you of something?

…

if a lion could speak we would not be able to understand what he said…why do i say such a thing?

…

what’s going on behind my words when i say: this is a very pleasant pineapple?
take your time.

…

we imagine the meaning of what we say say as something queer, mysterious, hidden from view…but nothing is hidden! everything is open to view!

you can’t know this pain, only i can!

it makes no sense to speak of knowing something in a context where we could not possibly doubt therefore to say i know i am in pain is entirely senseless

are you saying there are no philosophical problems?

there are linguistic, mathematical, ethical, logistic and religious problems but there are no genuine philosophical problems

you are trivializing philosophy

philosophy is just a byproduct of misunderstanding language. why don’t you realize that?!

from Derek Jarman, Wittgenstein (1993)

At the start of this interview Ryan Gosling leaves his seat to look behind a door. Because he thought he saw a cat, he finds out that it is actually the foot of a PR. On his realisation he responds by saying that “As long as that cat has a body we’re all right.”

Gosling is currently perceived as one of the most exciting actors around. Catherine Shoard asks him about his character in his film Drive, while he is stoned. Both him and director Nicholas Reft both took equal love and consideration into the film. He personally made the car he drives in the film and has a home made tattoo of a monsters hand on his lower arm. On one hand Gosling appears to be a stoned fame stricken young actor trying to represent three films he is staring in at once. On the other hand, a down to earth craftsman with a sensitive but macho persona who doesn’t actually seem that interested in film at all.
Ryan has also just been crowned Time magazines coolest person of 2011!

The text was written by Raymond Queneau in alexandrines.

Unfortunately, I couldn’t find english subtitles.
