“Filmic Abecedarian with Stutter” [by Jason Schneiderman]

Filmic Abecedarian with Stutter

Almodovar’s best cuts demonstrate
Everything. Forget Griffith’s
Hits.

How hollow Ingmar, in juxtaposition.

Kubrick? Lang? Muck-abouts.

Not one peer para
Pedro.

Pedro’s questing reveals Spain’s
terrifying (typifying) universalism.

Vanquishes Woody.

Xceeds you,

yes you,

Zeferelli.

— Jason Schneiderman
