the work.group share an affinity for designating certain works as ‘perfect.’ i would enjoy sorting through some of these in various genres. probably the easiest is movies. feel free to argue with any that should not be canonized. this effort should pull no punches, nor should it find shame in the pettiness of a particular gripe. i think 2001 is a fantastic, medium-defying, masterwork. but that fetus at the end seems out of place and aesthetically inappropriate to me. obviously it was the image the master wanted to use to tell the story and probably was out of place for a reason. but it just seems hamfisted after all the brilliance that precedes it that i just have to close my eyes and see blackness for the last refrain of zarathustra. hence, it isnt a perfect movie.
