Matterhorn

At one point, I can't remember the sermon that he's preaching in, but at one point he talks about, it's like having the shadow of a thing without ever experiencing the actual thing.

And so a prime example I think of is the Matterhorn.

You know, we live here in Southern California, which means you can drive down the five freeway and look off to your left if you're headed north.

And what do you see? You see the Matterhorn peeking out from Disneyland because Walt Disney built one, right? It's a small little building that's in the shape of a Matterhorn.

A lot of people don't realize the Matterhorn is a real building in, or a real building, sorry.

It's a real mountain.

Yeah.

It looked like the finger of God pointing out, jetting out from the clouds into the sky, pointing to his glory.

Our critic-at-large, John Powers, says Fatherland packs in a world of ideas and feelings and history into a gorgeous, almost flawless film that doesn't waste a single second.

Artists are notoriously self-important, but a handful carry themselves as if they were the Matterhorn, stony, daunting, towering over the concerns of ordinary mortals.

One of these was the majestic German writer Thomas Mann.

After the teenage Susan Sontag paid him a reverential visit in the late 40s, she wrote in her diary, I interrogated God this evening.

How do you begin such a thing? What...

when you're gonna start climbing this Matterhorn, what do you, what do you do?

Well, I say I think I'm attracted to this sort of things.

I don't know whether there's such a thing as Rumpelstiltskin syndrome, but I do like the idea of an unfeasibly large amount of material to, to, to, to work through and to turn into something else.

So we start from this picture.

The Matterhorn, just the landmark for Switzerland, and with the blue sky that was probably photoshopped, and that's because it's so blue, looks like California.

But this is actually the environment as you like it to be.

And this is reality.
