Morrison on Film


"I think there's a whole region of images and feelings inside us
that rarely are given outlet in daily life.
And when they do come out, they can take perverse forms.
It's the dark side.
Everyone, when he sees it,
recognizes the same thing in himself.
It's a recognition of forces that rarely see the light of day."
