bruiser
bruiser is a proposed short film that is my attempt to aesthetically reconcile the disparity between my moral repulsion to violence and my simultaneous fascination with it--my bloodlust, if you will. This aesthetic battle will be played-out through a highly-stylized, noir-ish tale about bottom-rung thugs (bruisers) slugging it out over a MacGuffin. The 10-page draft I currently have written asks questions about our perceptions of art, pornography, violence, media dissemenation, and audience points-of-view.
