On the Fountian

Cat
I rented the movie. It was to much like the book they exnilled the character of Katie - which i was thought was important becuase it showed the effects of an individual fatigue by unrelenting serventhood to others. i thought she was more of a antigonist to roark than peter, becuase while peter was serving the public for them granting of his greater good, katie was serving the public for their greater good. roark served the public for his greater good individualistcally. in his serving he cared more for mankind because he stood for the man that would stand for himself and have integrity. in the end climax (which he quoted word for word in the movie) it was so much of nobody will care for your individuality so you better stand up for it. i agree to that some what but these poeple not having any concern for God, the only thing they can hold to ( and loosly at that) is them selves. i think it is interesting that she "choose" the career for the main character to be an architect. i reaaly can't imagine what other profession would have worked better than a fine artist. of course than you get into the realitivism of fine. anyways that has nothing to do with architectures impact but that will be in the next post

the movie?! huh! and no katie?! that's sad. yeah i always remember that individual fatigue you mentioned when people talk about philanthropy. it's been a while since i've read the book, so i cant talk terribly well about it. i dont even remember the end climax. hey your relativism of fine is like what i said on my blog about absolute beauty. we should have a good talk about it. youd be a good one. I'm expecting that next post!! -cat
