  • i like your movie, and i like gerorges perec. how did you discover him, what essay was it that inspired you? check out his biography by david bellos.

  • Hi Kurt - thanks for the support and friendly comments. The Perec essay that ended up informing a large part of the script was "Thoughts on the Art and Technique of Crossing Words." I'll be sure to look up Bellos' book soon.

  • I liked the acting of the two girls. Feel good, that i took the time to watch the full short.

  • hi animavisual. if you do decide to get the bellos book, it makes mention of perec's contribution (which he dearly loved) of the crossword puzzles in a major parisian newspaper, although i'm not sure if that was a daily contribution or the sunday edition only. poor georges, he left us so early and with so much more to say.
