The title and part of the scope for this blog come from a passage from one of Susan Sontag's essays:
"Nothing new except language, the ever found. Cauterizing the torment of personal relations with hot lexical choices, jumpy punctuation, mercurial sentence rhythms. Devising more subtle, more engorged ways of knowing, of sympathizing, of keeping at bay. It's a matter of adjectives. It's where the stress falls."
("Where the Stress Falls," 2001)
Or, looking at form, substance, structure, and style to gain a fuller, more appreciative understanding of film, among other things.
I'm now on Twitter.
