Devotional Cinema (2005)
"These imbalances distort what life actually could be for humans. They are an inversion of the hierarchy of vision, language, and concept, a hierarchy that, if balanced properly, can sublimely inform our daily experience. That is, first we are in a visual space, and then within that three-dimensional context, we speak and declare. This space allows us to both see and feel the world more clearly - our heart softens and opens and our intuition is in place.
Films have the potential to mirror this clarity, but all too often represent spoken-language ideas rather than recognizing that concepts or spoken language are ornaments in the context of visual space. The ornament of language can point out, direct, specify, and describe the world, but it doesn't see the world. Many films suffer from this distortion. Sometimes it is quite obvious. For instance, the syntax of the television-style documentary film, like that of the evening news, often turns the visual vitality of the world into mere wallpaper in support of spoken information. I think if Dante were writing the Inferno today, the first ring of Hell would be a large circular desk of newscasters."
