At a performance last night of Samuel Beckett's Endgame, I could not get something out of my head. Hugo Weaving, in a quite enthralling performance entirely conducted from a wheelchair wears a pair of glasses that are designed to indicate that he is blind. The prominence of the glasses, reflecting the lights onto the stage is quite mesmerising. You cant stop looking at them. But has Andrew Upton taken the image from another, less well-known but iconic source.
Just a thought but....Check the photos

This is a blog devoted to things of interest to cinephiles. The subjects are randomly selected in the manner of a diary and are somewhat oriented to Sydney, Australia. In the past I used to send out these entries via regular emails but this has trailed off and its best to check here for anything new. You can contact me direct via email at filmalert101@gmail.com
