Specifics. Required.
The scene was being set. It, looked like a gangster " movie " set-up. But, how could " that " be ? Considering, the parameters of " the Yank job, " as well as the propensity to " pull chains " apart from strings, of the heart, when " push, came to, shove " ! The intimacy, of the clients. and, the atmospheric mood " swings, " made, for, something special. Leading to speculation. As to, what went on, and, what would come off. A gain ?
Therein, lies, the dark seedy underbelly of the " unknown " ! Tant-a-mount, to the speculative venture, coming into harmony, with the quasi-superficial. Leaving in no doubt, in anyone's mind, what " in Hell's name," was happening And, for what reasoning. Beyond, the artificial construct, required, to celebrate history, of the " mob, "and, the " mop " as well as " the flop " ! The Godfather " scenario, " free of " Bugsy, " perversely being a way to get friend or foe to open up. Perhaps, literally, for the good of all. And, themselves. Off, course.
The Italiano-complex, even here, applied to the extreme. To, bring people together. Obviously. To, effect, loose changes. Or, anything loose at all. Away, from the highly-strung pressurized habitat of the suburban " androgenous." A simple notion, encapsulating " A Simple Plan," to bring something out of discourse. Finally.
In light, of standard practice, there was little room, really, to manouvre. But, it, had to be found. For, sake of " art, and, craft " ! Removed, from the abject assimilation, of mindful correlations, with matter. To produce, the material, without " stink " ! Yet, with enough energy, devoid of judgement, to permit " free reign " over proceedings, even by the " cunt amateur. " The " steaks " were high. And, the stakes known. So, the " environment " was contrived, to give opportunities, where once there were none. Or, hopes of success.
The feelings of " jaw-dropping " awe-struck wonder highlighted, for a change, over the daily plod. To work-on, or, of something else, entirely. The emotional " crisis " being transformed into the uplifting. Hence," The Drop " resurrecting idealist accepted, or, unaccepted practical, and, " rationale. " Even, within the spiritual context. Using, all assets, at ones disposal, to further, the goods. Probably, to a different " state " of being. Above, the righteous intent to " leave, for dead " inhibitions. Possibly, at the door. When, it was reviewed, probably, just before " filming " started. So, all became utterly clear. To all. About what, and why, things were going on. The way, they, were. The overall perspective being, that, of undeniable communication between " groundings, " and soundings. To make an audience, beg, for more. And, why not ?
This was a scene, set, to make history. Then , and there. Let alone, respond to, it. It, was in the realization of core principles, where " facts " would, in perspective, merge with fiction. Separate from the " LA Confidential " ! The super-hero concept rejected. " Ejected from the building " in a certain manner, to bring peaceful safer creative urges, to cast and crew alike. Who needs " Superman " when " High Art " is envisaged ? To send messages. To project power. To lift spirits. The wanton desire, for the " award-winning " performance replaced by collective " responsibility. " How nice, was this ? Or, that, visualized by " storey-boarding " critique, and, critics !
