Déjà Vu
(2006)

RATING:60%
FORMAT:DVD



Inevitable response to 9/11 in Yanks desperately trying to convince themselves they possess absolute power; while Al-Qaeda still remains a potent fear for Whites & Zionists. What if it were possible to stop 9/11 after it had happened?

Accept the absurd premise, the illogical plot and the unconvincing necrophile love story and this overwrought melodrama is exciting fun because it is essentially about a common response to emotional loss: Crying over spilt milk.

Terrorism obviously has the same effect as Christmas since people of the same ethnicity act nicer to one another in their need to share their suffering. Nevertheless, this is still just an example of the immaturity of crying over spilt milk: An ineffectual sticking plaster to a great cultural wound.

The movie also tries to have its cake and eat it through the terrorist being simultaneously successful and unsuccessful; satisfying both the bloodthirsty and those hoping for rescue.

Science:



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



Jacob Bronowski… (1908 - 74), British scientist, author. Encounter (London, July 1971).


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.)
