  • Roy Stuart – Glimpse 24 – Alpha (2021)

    2021-2030ArthouseEroticaFranceRoy Stuart

    Quote:

    Alpha is the first letter of the Greek alphabet. In the system of Greek numerals, it has a value of one. In ethology, it is used to name the dominant individual in a particular group. In astronomy, it is the first (typically the brightest) star in a constellation. All great things start with Alpha, it’s the symbol of power and strength, the symbol of greatness and renewal. Be part of the change, be part of an unprecedented and sulfurous adventure. Eroticism has evolved.Read More »

    Quote:
    Like the unknown woman imagined by the poet – which is never quite the same nor entirely different- this new Glimpse 13 resembles it’s twelve prestigious precedents while having its own distinct identity.

    It remains, I think, the single overwhelming experience I’ve ever had in a cinema. When I first came out of the theater, I remember I just had to sit on the edge of the pavement. I sat there for about five minutes and then I walked the streets of Paris for a couple of hours. For me, every thing had been turned upside down. All my ideas about the cinema had been changed. While I was actually watching the film, my impressions were so strong physically that I thought that if this or that sequence would to go for one more shot, I would either burst into tears or scream or something. Since then, of course, I’ve seen it at least fifteen times like most filmmakers of my generation. I even recorded the whole soundtrack on my tape recorder and it’s amazing how well it stands up well on its own.Read More »
