theunderestimator: theunderestimator: “TALKING HEADS” (GADAJACE GLOWY): a short documentary, directed by Krzysztof Kieslowski in 1980, turns a simple idea into a masterpiece: ordinary people of different age and background in Poland were asked 3 simple questions. Their spontaneous responses reveal the way they see life… Part 1: “WHO ARE YOU?”: A difficult question with a simple answer… UPDATED: Click here for part 2 and the full 15.min. video. This is by far my most popular post so far, as well as my personal fave. It has nothing to do with punk, which is this blog’s main interest (though the “So far, I’m a nobody” punchline can be perceived as the quintessence of the nihilism of punk ideology) but this post, about an obscure Polish short documentary that probably only few have actually known about, brought hundreds of you in touch with me in the very beginning and kick-started this whole thing. So, I guess it’s back to the roots for me, while waiting fot the axe to drop after receiving the final warning from Tumblr for copyright violations and it certainly is useful to be reminded once again why I started this blog in the first place: simply to share the things I like with anyone interested (you were damn right, @grelicks). (…and don’t hesitate a minute to follow @theunderestimator-2 in advance, so that you can stay tuned for more rock ‘n’ roll…) -- source link
