the fast and the furious married to the marriage of zones 3 4 and 5

there's something about this opening of fast and furious that makes me want to put classical music under it - it's so damn dependant on this pulsing rap music and the roar of the engines -
but i really like it.
a world where cars are everything.
mediocre acting -
and pretty pedestraian in the shooting it's not how you stand by your car, it's how you race your car.

i mean, this is just asking for a mash-up

i did give karl this souped up jaguar- his clutch is fucked maybe serge can fix it - that's a nice scene. i wonder if i can

oooh i love this girl - really, i think phil glass should write an opera to this one. i wonder if i could recut it

hmmm. not to mention - like next week is there a moment i could get these kids to talk over some of the stuff? which is actually all of next week - i got a busy week ahead of me here, dont i -

this actually is structured very like a musical -

maybe even carmen, maybe bits of all kinds of operas - i totally want to redo the score to this movie, i have no idea why.

repainting - soundpainting, i don't know what we call it.

this is quite a rack shot- the focus goes in and out.

it's actually a variant of white boy master of the universe meets the 'non' other - the immigrant commnity -- and finds meaning in their world

the newest romance - a la Netherlands and - what was that screener I got that everyone loved and someone took? The Visitor. Empty white guys fills his dull, success-laden life with the plight of illegal immigrants and thereby learns to appreciate just how fucking lucky he has it.

here's the race. didn't i see a doc on this? i did, a film festival, he showed the real LA drag racers - and i met the kid who made it too, i thought i t was amazing
did they take this show from him?

wow i loved that one shot just now. hm for a moment there i thought this was a videogame

only

there's all kinds of distortion going on
the race is over and he nearly destroyed his car. okay -

a - for lack of a better word - trope
the new guy replaces the old guy as right hand man -
this is in the fast and the furious -
the others' connection is much older, longer -
the new guy is cuter, smarter and higher class
and he also takes over the guy's girl.
a million movies have this.

i totally love this movie. i love the guys blowing up his green car in chinatown - i love how all the cars leave the scene of the race when the cops show up, like so many lit-up cockroaches scurry from the kitchen sink when the light's flicked on.

it actually has lots of applications to what i'm working on.
