Bank Job

(2008)

RATING:80%
FORMAT:DVD

Intriguing look at how White Western governments really work to protect their shameful sex and race secrets from the light of day - and of how Whites, themselves, imagine that they do. The political aspect most focused on here is that behind the façade of White English emotional repression and politesse lies sexual perversion and erotic self-indulgence.

The breathless style and pace of this movie is designed to compensate for the politically-rich but emotionally-meagre script - but it is still all good fun for that - as well as for the contempt of the UK Royal family as an institution.

Even so, the handbags at dawn combat between Saffron BURROWS and Georgia TAYLOR over the hero is well-acted and believable, as is the emotional retardation of those who seek shelter from their fear of change via theft, intimidation & murder.

Science:



No science is immune to the infection of politics and the corruption of power.

Sleep of Reason:



The dream of reason produces monsters. Imagination deserted by reason creates impossible, useless thoughts. United with reason, imagination is the mother of all art and the source of all its beauty.



Francisco José de Goya y Lucientes… (1746-1828), Spanish painter. Caption to Caprichos, number 43, a series of eighty etchings completed in 1798, satirical and grotesque in form.


Humans & Aliens:



I am human and let nothing human be alien to me.



Terence… (circa 190-159 BC), Roman dramatist. Chremes, in The Self-Tormentor [Heauton Timorumenos], act 1, scene 1.


Führerprinzip:



One leader, one people, signifies one master and millions of slaves… There is no organ of conciliation or mediation interposed between the leader and the people, nothing in fact but the apparatus - in other words, the party - which is the emanation of the leader and the tool of his will to oppress. In this way the first and sole principle of this degraded form of mysticism is born, the Führerprinzip, which restores idolatry and a debased deity to the world of nihilism.



Albert Camus… (1913-60), French-Algerian writer & philosopher. The Rebel: An Essay on Man in Revolt: New York: Vintage Books, (1984; page 182.)
