bergman ponders escape

Singer:sparks

i've often portrayed nightmares in my films. but this is a nightmare of a different sort. i have to escape this nightmare. i must return to where i came from. i've often portrayed hopelessness in my films. but this is a hopelessness of a different sort. i must escape here and return home. this hollywood is not a place

it's a sensibility

a sensibility at

complete odds with my sensibility. i've often portrayed loss of identity in my films

but i've never felt

that loss of identity myself. i must escape. they admire what i represent too much to cause me any bodily

harm if i try to escape. still

i don't even know what escape means when the place you

are escaping from is more of an idea than a physical location. escape is too logical of a concept. perhaps if i go downstairs without being seen and just continue

walking

escape may come as quickly as this form of

imprisonment has come.
