Movie poster for The Drama, 2026.

Just back from a viewing of The Drama, 2026. I haven't seen the Bergman film but I suspect the poster of The Passion of Anna in Zendaya and Pattinson's apartment was an allusion too far.

I liked the fact that the ending remained unresolved, as such. There was a worrying risk that the film might give in to its conservative inclinations.

Yes - scene in the recording booth where Scheider reminisces/confesses; didn't think he had it in him, tbh. I liked it but thought the comic aspects spoiled the effect, ultimately. My own outlook may be the problem though so am not the ideal audience for it. I'm more a T.R. Baskin sort of fellow.

Epilogue from The Resistible Rise of Arturo Ui by Bertolt Brecht: If we could learn to look instead of gawking, We'd see the horror in the heart of farce, If only we could act instead of talking, We wouldn't always end up on our arse. This was the thing that nearly had us mastered; Don't yet rejoice in his defeat, you men! Although the world stood up and stopped the bastard, The bitch that bore him is in heat again.
