Via Ronen le Grand - que vous devriez suivre, ce garçon est prometteur, vraiment - un peu de poésie et de finesse dans un monde de brutes, d’après Rian Johnson :

“The Psychology of Dream Analysis,” a little DV short my cameraman Steve Yedlin and I made six years ago, before Brick. Presented with not a little self doubt for your enjoyment.
Rian Johnson

On aime pour l’ambiance très “Amélie Poulain”. On gardera d’ailleurs à l’oeil Rian Johnson pour The Brothers Bloom, qui devrait sortir cet octobre outre-atlantique, mais dont Rian parle régulièrement sur son tumblr. Vous allez aimer ce film, c’est moi qui vous le dit.

Via Laugharne, l’extrait d’une interview d’Alan Moore désormais introuvable sur le net - merci archive.org - qui pourrait tout aussi bien trouver sa place dans un guide pour wannabe writers que dans un manuel de développement de soi.

The four magical weapons are the wand, the sword, the cup and the coin.

The coin represents the earthly, material things – the body. Yeah, you’ve got to be materially grounded, you’ve got to understand the material world. You’ve got to understand the urges of the flesh. You’ve got to understand how all of this works on a hard, practical, earthly level. You need your coin.

The sword represents intellect and discrimination, both of which are faculties you need. You need to be able to tell a good idea from a bad idea. Discrimination is the most powerful tool. To have the intellectual discrimination to be able to say: “This idea doesn’t work because of this, this and this, this idea could work if we did this, this and this”. That’s really very useful. Don’t leave home without your sword – your intellect.

The wand is the will. This is the drive – whatever that is – in each individual. It is something above intellect, it’s above emotion, it is the soul, the will, the highest self, the thing that drives high art. High art is nothing to do with the lower personality. It’s not to do with fight and flight, fighting and fucking, eating, surviving – it’s got something higher behind it. That’s what wands are.

If you have all three of these things but don’t have the cup, which is compassion, then no. Yeah, you’ll be incredibly clever, you’ll be incredibly motivated and you’ll be incredibly materially solid, but without the compassion that the cup represents, you’ll also be a monster.

So you’ll need all four of these things, and that is true whether you’re a human being, a magician or a writer. You need to have these things balanced.

On répète après moi. Alan Moore a toujours raison. Et comme Alan Moore ne va jamais sans un peu de ponctuation, il convient d’ajouter… WHORES !
Vous pouvez disposer.
