Hmm... NAKED LUNCH, Cronenberg? Do you like that film? it's a little bit off.
ReplyDeleteI've always looked at Naked Lunch like a twisted 8 1/2, and I find the idea of literature and drugs as synonymous really interesting. It's a strange movie, and it's far from perfect, but I'm fascinated each time I see it. It's one of those movies I haven't figured out exactly why I like it, but I see a lot to be mulled over. Frankly, I feel more ready to write about Videodrome than this. I should also be (finally!) seeing The Fly and Crash.
