    Fully detailed review please, including a pointless reference to '200 Motels'.

    The Congress with Robin Wright.



    I have not gone to the movies in a long time. With bad eyesight, I tend not to drive at night much, to be safe. I have to admit I was curious about that film, btw, and don't know why.

    "200 Motels" is a very valuable and amazing movie. It's too bad that everyone just thinks dope and stupidity along the way. It's visual style led the way to using video for effects in film, even.

    As a wise Guy once stated from his holy chapala ... none of the hits, none of the time ... prevents you from becoming just another turkey in the middle of all the other turkeys!

    Robin plays herself and is offered the last contract of her life. This means the studio samples her and can digitally be a certain age which the studio can use in any way they see fit (using 'animators'). The "old" Robin can never perform in any fashion "for life". Her attorney negotiates that 'life' is 20 years. 
     
    What happens after 20 years is so unlike 200 Motels. Well 199 Motels less.
     
    The concept reminds me of the parallels in music (sample libraries and all the AI in music making, BIAB et. al.)
     
    Oh, and no prog musicians were harmed or mentioned in the making of this music, ecspecially Gong.
