...study as something subjective and inspired (Literature with a capital L). Since the creation of English departments in the late 19th century, “pedants” or “scholars” have shared duties with “dilettantes” or “critics??—often angrily.

And indeed, Bujalski’s influences—as noted by film critics??include John Cassevetes, Jean-Luc Godard, Eric Rohmer: brilliant artists whose work is largely unnoticed by the casual filmgoer.But obscurity is not what Bujalski intends: “My biggest fear at the moment is that my films might be elitist, which I never intended them...
