Boris Mitic: In Praise of Nothing
Boris, I watched it two times
your film, so full of rhymes
I was not stressed,
felt actually quite impressed
I loved the voice of Iggy Pop,
does that make me an intellectual snob?
The cabaret music made me glad,
I could not sit still where I sat
The images are sooo fine,
enjoyable as the best wine
Your texts are sometimes crazy
really pleasing this viewer lazy
I see the film as a tribute to everything
from your alter Ego Mr. Nothing
… and to Glawogger our master
who fought against disaster
But why sarchastic to the genre docu
I don’t think it suits you
But happy that you are not a journalist,
not so happy when you are a moralist
That would be my main objection,
to a film that does not want perfection
but that wants to question it all, through fun,
and a beauty that sometimes made tears run
Trust your image elegance
and your verbal eloquence
Big hug
