I was feeling inspired today and briefly thought that while I’m doing just a minute of In a Lonely Place (where one frame per day will take me almost four years), what if I just went ahead and did the whole movie? Then I did the math: this movie’s 89 minutes, at one frame per day, would last 351 years. Rarely has my own mortality been made so clear to me, but instead of inspiring a sense of urgency, I no longer knew what to do with myself and have wasted the rest of the day in what can only be called extreme fashion.
