Endless Poetry Page #2

Synopsis: Through Alejandro Jodorowsky's autobiographical lens, Endless Poetry narrates the years of the Chilean artist's youth during which he liberated himself from all of his former limitations, from his family, and was introduced into the foremost bohemian artistic circle of 1940s Chile where he met Enrique Lihn, Stella Díaz Varín, Nicanor Parra... at the time promising young but unknown artists who would later become the titans of twentieth-century Hispanic literature. He grew inspired by the beauty of existence alongside these beings, exploring life together, authentically and freely. A tribute to Chile's artistic heritage, Endless Poetry is also an ode to the quest for beauty and inner truth, as a universal force capable of changing one's life forever, written by a man who has dedicated his life and career to creating spiritual and artistic awareness across the globe.

art above all else.

Carmen!

I bring you a new friend.

Good evening, Ricardo.

- I do not want to disturb.

- But no, darling,

an artist can enter

here at any time.

Vernica!

Ricardo!

Who are you bringing us, Ricardo?

It's Alejandro.

A sublime soul, a future great artist.

Let's see.

Good! You have a beautiful skeleton.

You would make a good model.

What is your art, Alejandro?

I write poems.

You know one by heart?

No.

But you're a poet. Improvise!

You cut the tree. You can.

"The Being that dwells in me is consumed," "flaming from dreams." Come, Alejandro. = = Look! = = Antique hero, he cut his family tree. It is a wonderful boy.

A boy or a girl?

It is a unique being.

It is so beautiful!

Yes, but this beautiful being

is a man, Ricardo. A man!

I'm wrong or is

that what I think?

That's right.

That's right?

That's right?

Yes, it's true.

But this boy is still innocent.

Do not make him believe that

your love is friendship.

I would like to live without a mask.

But I am the son of Naum.

I have to become an architect,

get married, have children...

Ose, Ricardo!

The scandal would kill my father.

Remove your mask.

Ose.

Dare!

Ose, Ricardo!

Dare!

Ose, Ricardo!

Yes.

Yes.

Thank you.

Punto!

Hi, you.

Between, Ricardo.

You do not bother me.

Do you like it here?

Thanks to you, I have

never been so happy.

I could write quiet. Listening:

"I do not fear my shadow, my goal is to return to what I have always been." That is beautiful. summer".

Tell me, did you ever have sex?

No, never.

And you masturbate?

Yes.

And you think of men, or women?

To women, of course.

Me, I think of men.

To beautiful men like you.

Can I tell you something?

You like me.

In fact, I love you.

Sorry, Ricardo.

Moi...

I'm not like that.

That's what I feared.

More...

we can be friends.

Impossible.

You should hide my erections.

Then there is no solution.

Farewell, Alejandro.

We will never see each other again.

I'm sorry.

You would give me

a kiss, remember?

I owe you so much.

Agree.

Did you feel anything?

Nothing.

I did not feel anything!

I'm not fagot.

I told you, papa!

I felt free.

I grew up.

Standing, poet!

Arise!

I've been up a long time.

Come and meet your brothers.

What brothers?

Come on. Follow me.

You will meet Cana and

Gordo, symbiotic dancers.

Alberto Rubio, supra-tenor.

Gustavo Becerra, ultra-pianist.

Your brother Hugo Marn, poly-painter.

This miracle we call chance,

sent us this poet:

Alejandro Jodorowsky.

Let us welcome him!

We will not let you go

until you say a poem.

"To be neither one nor the other.

" To lose one and a thousand skins,

"consume the superfluous

in a feast of flames;

"be carried away by the

wind in a swarm of petals."

Poet!

I sold my devil to the soul!

Then, Alejandro,

Who is this puppet?

You made me read the

Odes, of Pablo Neruda,

and the Antipoemes,

of Nicanor Parra.

It's Parra that I prefer.

It is not a supreme

God, like Neruda.

It is a human being,

with sublime weaknesses.

I have the honor to present you

a great poet:
Nicanor Parra!

"For many years, I was condemned

to worship a despicable woman

"to work day and night,

" to feed and clothe her,

"to commit various larcenies

" in the light of the moon.

"I flew for her,

" under pain of being discredited

"to his fascinating eyes."

Leave me alone!

It was very fun.

Take this money.

Why Money?

I have everything I need here.

But here you will not find a muse

like The Viper of Nicanor Parra.

Go to Caf Iris.

Poets and muses meet

there every night.

You may encounter yours here.

A beer, please.

Thank you.

You all are nothing!

My two liters!

Do you know this woman?

This is Stella Daz, a poet.

Prudence, young man.

You all are nothing!

Stop!

Thank you.

Yes. I follow you.

Hit me.

Open your eyes.

They say you write poems.

Me too, I write.

Could I have the

honor to read them?

Only my poems interest you?

Not my ass and my breasts?

No, it's that...

I'm not interested...

Show me your sex.

- My sex?

- Your sex.

- Here in the street?

- Now.

You are a virgin.

You are pure, like a

romantic pierrot.

Come on.

Here you are, your portrait.

I love you.

I need you.

I am yours.

You will illuminate my way

with a fiery butterfly.

Thank you.

"The woman who loved the doves like a virgin in ecstasy, at night, suckled the lilies with her sleeping bosom. "dreaming leaning against the wall"

"and everything seemed beautiful, without being so." It's great! Yes, everything looks beautiful. This place is magic! Wake up, sir = = Mademoiselle!

Let's dance!

That's enough, let's go.

Farewell!

Here is the pension where I live.

Now I'll bite you.

Do you want to see if I'm willing to

sacrifice a piece of ear to get you?

I sacrifice myself.

And sh*t!

Get out of here, get out!

Get out of here, sh*t!

Did not you like my devil?

You have talent, my boy.

We'll get along.

Now go to bed.

Go away!

Go, I'll find you tomorrow.

At midnight, at the Caf Iris.

Go away.

At midnight, at the Caf Iris.

Goodbye!

A beer, please.

Another.

Another one.

Let this Nicanor Parra be your master!

You should not go with the...

vulgar lousy like that.

If you read his great poem La

Viper, you will see your portrait.

Goodbye forever!

You want to break my mouth?

I take care of it myself!

I'm much more than that.

I am Nicanor Parra.

And the one that inspired

my poem, La Viper,

this is Stella.

I give it to you.

I'm sure you have a knife.

Give it to me.

This is to prune the pen

with which I write.

Shut up.

A poet does not have to justify himself.

What's your name?

Alejandro.

We will not be separated.

We will sleep by day

and live by night.

I will write by scratching

the skin of your back.

Through the pain, you

will understand my poems.

I'm still a virgin.

We will do everything

except penetration.

I keep my hymen for the man

with the divine forehead

who will descend from the mountains.

You will feed me.

I will allow you to

drink my saliva.

From now on

whenever we walk together,

I will keep your

secret parts grabbed.

Sit down.

Remove your shoes.

It's a pension for retirees,

they sleep until late.

They grumble if a sound wakes them up.

Orpheus, in the den of death,

must not see naked his beloved.

Your coat...

Your skirt...

Your shirt...

Your corsage...

My love wanders in the streets

I do not know when it will return

Will it return for Easter

or for the Trinity?

Sara.

Come on.

The Past Trinity

my love does not return anymore

His mother who is waiting for her

starts to sob

Everyone humiliates me.

I wanted so much to

have a son doctor.

Calm down, Jaime.

My heart tells me that

Alejandrito will come back.

That's all we have left to eat.

Now you have to feed me.

You'll be able to?

I can.

As Nicanor Parra says:

"I will commit a small

larceny in the moonlight."

Alejandrito?

It's you?

Yes, Dad.

That's good. We were waiting for you.

Alejandrito

Go to bed, sleep well

Alejandro Jodorowsky

Alejandro Jodorowsky Prullansky (Spanish: [xoðoˈɾofski]; born 17 February 1929) is a Chilean-French filmmaker. Since 1948, Jodorowsky has worked as a novelist, a storyteller, a poet, a playwright, an essayist, a film director and producer, an actor in cinematic and theatre productions, a theatre director, a screenwriter, a film editor, a comics writer, a musician and composer, a philosopher, a puppeteer, a mime, a psychologist and psychoanalyst, a draughtsman, a painter, a sculptor and a spiritual guru. Best known for his avant-garde films, he has been "venerated by cult cinema enthusiasts" for his work which "is filled with violently surreal images and a hybrid blend of mysticism and religious provocation".Born to Jewish-Ukrainian parents in Chile, Jodorowsky experienced an unhappy and alienated childhood, and so immersed himself in reading and writing poetry. Dropping out of college, he became involved in theater and in particular mime, working as a clown before founding his own theater troupe, the Teatro Mimico, in 1947. Moving to Paris in the early 1950s, Jodorowsky studied mime under Étienne Decroux before turning to cinema, directing the short film Les têtes interverties in 1957. From 1960 he divided his time between Paris and Mexico City, in the former becoming a founding member of the anarchistic avant-garde Panic Movement of performance artists. In 1966 he created his first comic strip, Anibal 5, while in 1967 he directed his first feature film, the surrealist Fando y Lis, which caused a huge scandal in Mexico, eventually being banned. His next film, the acid western El Topo (1970), became a hit on the midnight movie circuit in the United States, considered as the first-ever midnight cult film, garnering high praise from John Lennon, which led to Jodorowsky being provided with $1 million to finance his next film. The result was The Holy Mountain (1973), a surrealist exploration of western esotericism. Disagreements with the film's distributor Allen Klein, however, led to both The Holy Mountain and El Topo failing to gain widespread distribution, although both became classics on the underground film circuit.After an aborted attempt at filming Frank Herbert's 1965 science fiction novel Dune, Jodorowsky produced five more films: the family film Tusk (1980); the surrealist horror Santa Sangre (1989); the failed blockbuster The Rainbow Thief (1990); and the first two films in a planned five-film autobiographical series The Dance of Reality (2013) and Endless Poetry (2016). Meanwhile, he has simultaneously written a series of science fiction comic books, most notably The Incal (1980–1989), which has been described as having a claim to be "the best comic book" ever written, and also The Technopriests and Metabarons. Accompanying this, he has also written books and regularly lectures on his own spiritual system, which he calls "psychomagic" and "psychoshamanism" and which borrows from his interests in alchemy, the tarot, Zen Buddhism and shamanism. His son Cristóbal has followed his teachings on psychoshamanism; this work is captured in the feature documentary Quantum Men, directed by Carlos Serrano Azcona. more…
