Voting is a right best exercised by people who have taken time to learn about the issues.
But I think it is a serious issue to wonder about the other platonic absolutes of say beauty and morality.
The Senator from Massachusetts has given us ample grounds to doubt the judgment and the attitude he brings to bear on vital issues of national security.
The reactionary is always willing to take a progressive attitude on any issue that is dead.
I did this Super-8 film at art school called 'Tissues ' this black comedy about a family whose father has been arrested for child molestation. I was absolutely thrilled by every inch of it and would throw my projector in the back of my car and show it to anybody who would watch it.
But one of the hardest things for me to do was to access anger. I could do it on stage. But when I did it on film it was hard for me. That probably has to do with the intimacy of film. And my own personal issues with expressing anger. So I had to learn how to do that.
I'm not someone who feels anger on particular issues.
I drank for about 25 years getting over the loss of my father and I took the anger out on myself. I did a good job at beating myself up at sometimes. I don't drink anymore but my alcoholic head occasionally says different. 'Nil By Mouth' was a love letter to my father because I needed to resolve some issues in order to be able to forgive him.
I have some anger issues.
Anger is a manifestation of a deeper issue... and that for me is based on insecurity self-esteem and loneliness.
