Oppenheimer… Evan, not Robert

Filed under: General — Tags: , , , — m759 @ 9:32 pm
 

From an Evan Oppenheimer 2011 film script,

"The Speed of Thought."

. . . .

Do not worry, it's an easy technique.

Okay.

Right. Look at your feet.
Now, focus on them. See them well.
Put light on them.
Now go up through your body
and keep the focus.

Now is better.

If we open ourselves to each other,
things will get easier.

What is this?

It's something we do very much.
Knock down our walls
and we merge in our heads.
We learned everything about each other.

Everything?

It may be that we do not like
long after that…
but at least
we'll understand.

And then there is the Quick and Dirty method . . .

" Once he opens these gates, Harry will flood his audience
with his redemptive epiphanic impression that ‘the world
was saturated with love.’ ”

In Sunlight and in Shadow
