...week or so ago I went among the sleek, naked towers to see some Kenneth Anger films. Anger is best known for Fireworks, a gay dream film featuring him projecting a roman candle from his fly and lighting it. Scorpio Rising (1963), a later work, is a slightly premature pop culture lick featuring motorcycles, an overripe rock soundtrack, and genitals. The genitals are only there for a couple of frames.

Long Day's Journey abounds with sentences interrupted or regretted by their speaker, moments of nakedness in which Jamie's concern breaks through his mask of cynicism, or Edmund's raw anger smashes his attempts at peacemaking...
