Movies took over the stage,
created make-believe players;
from arena to theaters,
cinema to home screen
these hundred years.
How technology spanned
live drama and celluloid,
Charlie Chaplin and Lucas,
Carl Jung and Simon Freud,
the young and the very old.
Hollywood to Bollywood,
white actors to colored,
aristocracy giving way
to realism on the road,
in stories simply told.
This is not all. It is just
the start of the future
which we live in today -
postmodern culture
in cyber adventure.
Movies, movies, movies
defy classification,
on Internet, television,
from studio to home grown
video to animation.
Quo vadis, movie?
where are you headed for?
for whom are you made
as we had known before,
at the local shore?
Is this a sign of demise,
of the movie, the classical,
movie, the great adventure,
movie, the historical,
true and ideal?
Movie does not speak,
or we just can't hear anymore,
under the heap of this strayed art
yearning not for more,
but for some quality score. ~
