“When they rob us of art and emotion, that leads us towards the aesthetics of fascism. In this film, all the sets are real, the decor is human-sized, there are painstakingly created miniatures... It’s there to remind us that art is not only necessary, it is urgent. And AI can go fuck itself!”

Guillermo del Toro on 'Frankenstein': 'AI can go f**k itself!'

"Art is not only necessary, it is urgent. And AI can go f*ck itself!” Guillermo del Toro is a guest of honour at this year’s Lumière Film Festival. He presents his adaptation of Mary Shelley's "Frankenstein", which audiences got to see on the big screen before it streams on Netflix next month.

attempting to cope by retranslating catullus 3

c. 3

Mourn, O Venuses and Cupids,
and all the beautiful people there are.
My girl's sparrow is dead:
that sparrow, my girl's darling,
whom she loved more than her own eyes.
He was honey-sweet and he had known her
as well as a girl knows her own mother.
He wouldn't move himself from her lap —
hopping around now here now there
he would chirp constantly to his mistress alone—
he who now goes through that dark journey
to that place whence they say no one returns.
May it go badly for you, wretched shadows
of the underworld, you who devour all beautiful things:
you have taken such a beautiful sparrow from me.
O evil deed! O miserable sparrow!
Now because of your work, my girl's swollen little eyes
are red from weeping.

the thing about thomas barrow downton abbey is that a gay footman who’s antagonistic to other servants as a defense mechanism to stay safe from discovery is so juicy. unfortunately julian fellows can’t be trusted to write about a dog taking shit without making it heterosexual
