Re: [Leica] Another 'does anybody (year of)

["\(SonC\) Sonny Carter" <sonc@sonc.com>]

"Year of Living Dangerously," probably my favorite film of all time.  I'll
look into it, until I find out, here's a memorable set of lines from the
film:


PETE
Condon, Condon, Condon. I'm talking elegance, all you ever shoot are tits.
Why don't you quit trying to sell us the pursuit of abstract beauty and
admit you're a pervert?

KEVIN
Come on Billy, you're a professional, is that pornography or art?

BILLY
If it's in focus, it's pornography, if it's out of focus, it's art.

WALLY
Definitely art. They really are exquisite


Regards,

Sonny
