“Hurt Into Poetry: On Poetry and Greece”By Stephanos Papadopoulos
Los Angeles Review of Books
Harun Farocki
01.09.1944 - PresentHarun Farocki is a German filmmaker. His 90 films are primarily short experimental documentaries.
"Why does dramaturgy have to be smooth, why is there no crisis in acting! Actors still play cute like orphaned babies in a crib wanting parents to adopt them. This gurgling, dribbling and crooning! (...) Then the actors travel to the USA in the summer, and in loft workshops they learn how to let it all hang out, instead of going to a Swiss clinic to have their facial muscles severed."
- Harun Farocki, Filmkritik
