Thanks atz75, and thanks brokeplex!!
Atz75, may I answer brokeplex first... and reply to you later (remind me please). Since I feel that he is lighthearted here. Because it is hard for me to think right now, being back from the dentist who took finally out my big tooth!
Brokeplex, you say: This is the great thing about great works of art : whether cinematic, painterly, or works of literature, we can interpret aspects of the work in as many different ways as our imagination allows us to journey. Some see tomatoes, others see beach balls.
Yes, that is important! And somehting else is more so!
You make my day! And you made me smile too! Plus laugh! I am delighted with your reply.
However, may I ask you and add that, since I am an artist painter, that I create images on canvas, not only for colour (as you say different ways the imagination of the spectator make think, take or do, as I mainly know that there is thruth there as the composition has it!! I do not know how else to say that, you understand?, and others here reading understand maybe too my meaning??
To continue about that: thruth! Yes, it is a journey, but there is also thruth that routes of journeys can find it (that thruth!! Only then, there is freedom; otherwise, only keeping on being somewhat lost by routes of a journey or journeys!! I will give you a concrete example (of my personal life) if you ask.
To me, it is obvious, that Jack is attracted immediately at his first sight of Ennis, and Ennis is stirred too as a result!!
That is in the movie, and, therefore, the producers (writers of the script) and/or Lee makes this clear right away, as an potential love story (Jack) with drama (Ennis) too; yes, Jack is the love, but Ennis is the drama!! But was that the two main actors (Jake and Heath) ideas of doing that?
To you, is the book the same?? As such attraction? Did even Annie qualify it that way immediately as in the movie?
Hugs!!
