Great film! #TheSilence

“Then, as the last curlew drops its songstone into sepulchral silence, the huge beaked dragonfly swoops from the blackening sky and the gates of Hell let fall a blood of rain…”
From ‘Wandering Pianos’ by #TimLebbon and #DFLewis 1999

Also from ‘Wandering Pianos’: “Being blind now, he can only see the black and white notes in his head.” Ironic.

As a *remarkable* aside, with regard to the Lavoie artwork at this Journal’s outset, his ‘Shhh – watch the film’, seems now highly synchronous bearing in mind the film that came out yesterday on Netflix whereby ‘Shhh’ is used as part of its advertised identity, as well as shown on a piece of paper within it.

Shown elsewhere as CARL Lavoie.

There are some inconsistencies about the film The Silence, but I was genuinely impressed with it as a great horror film that created real frissons and fears.
