There are only four elements you can use  to tell a screen story: Images, Action, Sound effects, and Dialogue.

THE FUGITIVE STAG EMERGED VIA DRAMATIC IMAGES THEN MUSIC THEN SOUND EFFECTS AND FINALLY DIALOGUE.

THE REELING PHILOSOPHER

There was a philosopher who always liked to hang around wherever children were playing. And if he caught sight of a boy who owned a spinning top, he would  immediately get himself ready. Scarcely had the top begun to spin when the philosopher would chase it and try to capture it. It never bothered him that the children shouted and tried to keep him away from their plaything. He was very happy if he could capture the top even as it spun, but only for a moment, whereupon he would throw it to the ground and go away.

For he believed that the knowledge of every tiny thing, therefore even of a spinning top for example, would suffice to produce knowledge of the universal

Hence, he refused to concern himself with the great problems, since that seemed all very uneconomical. If the tiniest thing were properly known, then everything would be known; and that is why he concerned himself so much with the spinning top. And whenever anyone prepared to spin the top, he entertained the hope that he would be successful this time, and as soon as the top was spinning, this hope became a certainty as he rushed breathlessly after it.

But once he held the silly wooden thing in his hands, he felt suddenly ill, and the cries of the children, which he had not noticed before but now suddenly came piercing upon his ears, drove him away reeling around like a top beneath the blows of a clumsy switch.

As for that “slippery operation known as Bellingcat” that he highlights … more later.

I have had this book for a while, and it only recently came to my attention that no one on Amazon has reviewed it yet, so I thought I’d give it a go. Fr. ap Iorwerth has given a dazzling, brilliant, (and fictional) account of Jesus and his movement from the point of view of Jesus’ greatest adversary, Satan himself. Satirical and serious, Satan does not hold back his criticisms of Jesus’ teachings, nor his absolute glee at how far Jesus’ modern “followers” have fallen from the core teachings. The true culprit behind all the lies and hypocrisy are revealed, and it’s not who you think it is…a wonderful read, whether in paperback or as an e-book. Disturbing? Yes. But once you pick it up, you won’t be able to put it down until the very last word…and even then you will be hard pressed NOT to turn it back to page 1 and start all over again!

I have read this book 3-4 times…in fact, I will be using it as one of the “study texts” for the women’s circle I hope to create in the near future. It is shocking, to say the least, and gives us a unique perspective into Jesus’ ministry, and the inner workings of Satan’s mind, from Satan’s point of view. Disturbing, fascinating, gut-wrenching…there aren’t enough adjectives to describe how mind-blowing (another adjective) this book really is. Just read it!
