I thoght I better raise the tone a bit after yesterday's post so here is Adam Curtis sounding off on positive and negative liberty and its effect on the Iranian Revolution, soundtracked by LCD Soundsystem.
Curtis is a brilliant and provocative documentary maker and I recommend all of his films. A word of warning, however, don't believe everything he says. His skilfull combination of archive footage and a persuasive narrative style may carry the unwary along, but he often passes off opinions as facts. Yet such is the skill of his film-making that it is often difficult to notice.
