Sheltering Sky

Brutal and human and cinematic genius. Peter Gabriel music. Love flails against bonds and freedom. Life and Death glaring back at you in the heat of the desert sun. Deborah Winger becomes a prisoner and the lover of her jailer as her whole world continues to unravel. I can't help but try and imagine where her mind is going, where it will wind up. Traveler vs. tourist. Artistic mind vs. the conventional or mundane or normal. Some of my friends wonder why I love it. I wonder why they wonder. There is just so much sensuality to witness. Everywhere.

Tunner: Do you and Port ever... share the same room?
Kit Moresby: Tunner, when you travel for months on end, you have to set it up this way. But if you're talking about sex, the first rule of marriage is never to confuse it with sleep.
