Watching “Melancholia” Is Like
- Staring at a broken egg timer waiting for it to go off while you listen to a CocoRosie song slowed to 1/30th speed.
- Taking four hours to eat a bowl of oatmeal, no butter, no sugar, no syrup, uncooked, with a hair in it.
- Listening to a radio play that was originally written in Swedish, then translated into German, and finally into English. In the dark. With a stranger who won’t stop weeping and touching your leg. In a room that smells like cigars.
- Waiting for Godot, only Godot shows up, but everyone else has left. Godot waits around for a long time anyway, then enters into Myst and freezes the game.
- Overdosing on cement mix and diet tonic water.
- Eating fifty packs of cinnamon gum while being told you’ve disappointed your family over a bad cell phone connection.
- Wearing clothes made of an itchy, beige, wool-lead blend to a press conference about track lighting.
- Breaking your front tooth on a piece of vanilla fudge.
- Taking an ice-cold bath while someone reads you Dogsong.
