Shot from the lost movie

The motif and estetics of this picture was influenced by my passion for movies. This time it is thriller. Thriller as well as other genre movies has a certain structure, that almost never changes and estetic strategies that are always coherent with time. Nowadays the viewer of 70's and 80's thriller or blaxpoitation film cocentrates on style. Just as in J. L. Borges novels: the storytelling is more important than a story, storyteller doesn't care about his feelings or experiance, he is telling a story, that looks historical, but is all fiction. It is like fragments from the world we don't know. Painting a shot from a film and telling a story, that doesn't exist is a bit simillar: the sight is very concrete and looks like a stilled action, like a fragment of story. But both, the story and the action, might not even exist and is left untold to the viewer. It is only the fragment that we got.
