I am starting to get all geeked up for this A Cure for Wellness thing. Which is probably not a good thing in that (1) anticipation often seems to raise the expectation bar and raised expectations often lead to disappointment, and (2) it's still about three weeks away from opening night, and that's a long time to maintain an erection. But on the other hand, my desire to see the movie has also spurred me on to get back to reading The Magic Mountain, which I really have been enjoying, so that's a good thing.
Anyway . . . .
In addition to a very exciting trailer, the movie promo people have released 3 two and a half minute "meditation" videos to help us achieve wellness--one for water, one for air, one for earth. I don't know what happened to fire. In the last of these videos, the mediation guide tells us to " . . . embrace the meaninglessness of your wasted existence . . . . " I've got to admit that that makes me a little bit happy. I know that that's kind of sick, but maybe it's just a misery loves company thing.
