ExtrapolationScene: Lucretia Borges (that infamous clamper and founder of The 3rd A) and Alexandre Dacusse (looking about impatiently) -- both bellied up at local Bronx watering hole. Camera holds on the street corner, momentarily bare, a pleadingly flat shot. Eventually, a figure emerges, then two. They appear to speak. (smoking a cigarette that is thin, in the european style, unlit)Borges: "Well, you could, to be sure, chase the whole issue back to free will and what not, but don't you think that's a rather pedestrian attempt to camouflage the obvious religious symbology behind such universal occurrences?" (still attached to his dumforqu, it's mechanical carapace causing a slight discomforted, easily shrugged) Dacusse: "Umm, sure. How's about another round? Can you spot me one more? Ahh, I seem to be low on cigs...." See Also |
