It’s never gone away!
Oh my god, yes. He was fine using that schtick in one movie, but it’s every goddamn film he’s in…
Me as well! Unfortunately, I joined an instance that went dark (kbin), so I’ve got 2 lemmy cake days, I guess.
It’s too late! The bowels of hell have already been emptied, the demons walk among us…
Did you go to Hollywood Upstairs Medical College, too?
Granted Picasso’s Les Demoiselles d’Avignon, where you could see the transition into cubism, was from 1907. He continued to create famous abstract works well into the 50s. Dali’s famous The Persistence of Memory (the melting clocks) is from 1931.
It’s wild that people think of the abstract movement pre-1900s to me! Pre-1900 was the Impressionists, and with Art Nouveau coming in at the turn of the century.
The 1930’s was really primed for the abstract modern painters.
Noting a correction is part of a larger scope of annotating something. From Wikipedia:
There is also a two-thousand-year-old character used by Aristarchus of Samothrace called the asteriskos, ※, which he used when proofreading Homeric poetry to mark lines that were duplicated. Origen is known to have also used the asteriskos to mark missing Hebrew lines from his Hexapla. The asterisk evolved in shape over time, but its meaning as a symbol used to correct defects remained.
In the Middle Ages, the asterisk was used to emphasize a particular part of text, often linking those parts of the text to a marginal comment. However, an asterisk was not always used.
Aristarchus of Samothrace was from c. 220 – c. 143 BC, so it’s been used for notation since at least then!
Close! Mrs Robinson is the name of the song and the older woman in the movie. While the younger man is being seduced by the older woman (who happened to be a married family friend), her daughter who is around his age catches his eye.
The movie is about the fallout of the affair and Dustin Hoffman attempting to date the daughter.
Well, how do you cope with moth memes?
