movie review - White Noise

the journal of Michael Werneburg

twenty-seven years and one million words

Kokubunji, 2023.05.20

I probably shouldn't be writing a review of this. But, I wrote a review of "Rat Race" despite having walked out, so here goes. This dull and awkward movie got off to such a shaky and obnoxious start that I pulled the plug at the 22 minute mark. Nothing about it engaged me enough to be patient. I've since tried again but similarly lost interest fast.

Not recommended.

Work is about a daily search for meaning as well as daily bread; for recognition as well as cash; for astonishment rather than torpor; in short for a sort of life, rather than a monday-to-friday sort of dying.
