[Roma] È il posto ideale per vedere se tutto finisce o no.
– Gore Vidal, “Roma” di Federico Fellini
E quale posto migliore di questa città morta tante volte e tante volte rinata, quale posto più tranquillo per aspettare la fine da inquinamento, sovrappopolazione?
– Gore Vidal, “Roma” di Federico Fellini
Roma è la città delle illusioni: non a caso qui c’è la chiesa, il governo e il cinema, tutte cose che producono illusione come fai tu, Federico, come faccio io.
– Gore Vidal, “Roma” di Federico Fellini
Vi domandate perché mai uno scrittore americano viva a Roma.
Prima di tutto perché c’è i romani che non si frega niente se sei vivo o morto, sono neutrali come i gatti.
– Gore Vidal in “Roma” di Federico Fellini
Ethan Hawke, Uma Thurman – „Gattaca“ (1997)
Die Dystopie ist ein klassisches Motiv des Science-Fiction-Genres. In diesem Gen-Technik-Thriller wird die Konsequenz der Wissenschaft zu einem Alptraum, den Individuen durch subversive Anarchie unterwandern und letztlich ad absurdum widerlegen. Ein episches Debüt von Andrew Niccol (Buch & Regie), das bis heute nichts von seiner Bedeutung verloren hat. (ZDF, Wh)

“I have just been studying a poll that pretends to investigate the sex lives of Americans. It is wonderfully preposterous (average woman has two sex partners-in her life), but it will be useful when the dictatorship is in place and the abberent woman who chooses a third partner can be punished.”

"Our rulers for more than a century have used political parties as a means of giving the people the illusion of choice while allowing the oligarchy to remain in control." - Gore Vidal

The Republican Party has been a #reactionary party since women got the vote and a #revanchist party since Desegregation if not the New Deal.
It is long overdue to revive these terms.
Or reconsider how #GoreVidal dropping the F-bomb the other side of The Pond put it:
"When you foreigners hear the word ‘conservative' you think of kindly old men hunting foxes. They're not, they're fascists."
“a design to acquire an empire is for us a means to transfer money from the Treasury to the various defense industries, which in turn pay for the elections of Congress and President.”
