Marlene and Herzog

Marlene, the haunted French doll from the fiery pits of a shitty, rural barn sale, watches on adoringly as I export M is for Mutation utilizing the far superior editing platform that is Adobe Premiere Pro CS6 (No, that wasn't a paid advertisement). I've been sleeping really well lately - and in an ironic twist, I guess I owe it all to this supposedly cursed piece of wax and plastic (sarcasm). It looks like Marlene is about to call her favorite film company...of all the possibilities, through this life and the next, she chose mine. I'm honored. Incidentally, that business card is using an iconic image, the single greatest metaphor for film-making and life; the "ship over mountain" still that has been burned into my psyche since I first laid eyes on maverick German Director Werner Herzog's Magnum Opus, Fitzcarraldo, during my film school days.
