Our new film, ALL ILLUSIONS MUST BE BROKEN, is a cinematic contemporization of the work of American cultural anthropologist #ErnestBecker whose book THE DENIAL OF DEATH won the Pulitzer Prize for non-fiction in 1974. Here's our first teaser trailer. vimeo.com/892936568
If you could use some solace in your day, might I recommend the greatest book from @Berry_Center patriarch, Wendell Berry: The Unsettling of America - common-sense affection & admonition in turns, that will help identify the good work in front of us. berrycenterbookstore.com/product/the-un…
"[#ErnestBecker] says, following Kierkegaard, that most... unreflexively accept the view of reality that our culture provides for us &... tranquilize ourselves with the trivial... We watch TV, we go shopping, & we drink ourselves into a perpetual stupor...."…
Laura Dunn will be present for a special (and public) screening of ALL ILLUSIONS MUST BE BROKEN at her Alma mater @Yale as a Poynter Fellow. DETAILS: Tomorrow night, October 2nd at 6PM at Linsly-Chittenden Hall 101 (63 High St.) poynter.yale.edu/events/2024-10…
"(22m 33s) Now everyone can create a sort of aerosolised, virtual trail within the internet itself. You don't even need to write a book anymore, you can just create a stream of social media and that's your ersatz immortality..." – Jef Sewell on modern denial, The Gray Area (Mar4)
I’m not surprised. ALL ILLUSIONS MUST BE BROKEN is so the film for this hour.
We are in Louisville for the Kentucky premiere of our new film, ALL ILLUSIONS MUST BE BROKEN. We have family here, but we also get to see some of the great friends we made making LOOK & SEE: A PORTRAIT OF WENDELL BERRY. Thank you, @louisvillefilm, for having us!
TONIGHT @ 7pm! (6pm Reception) Check out a special screening of ALL ILLUSIONS MUST BE BROKEN followed by a Q&A with directors Laura Dunn and Jef Sewell! Hope to see you there! $8-12. 9620.blackbaudhosting.com/9620/tickets?t…
The search is what anyone would undertake if he were not sunk in the everydayness of his own life. To become aware of the search is to be onto something. Not to be onto something is to be in despair. From The Moviegoer by Walker Percy, born #OTD in 1916
Seeing @JonHaidt on @rainnwilson’s show was definitely a “when world’s collide!” moment over here. (@HighSierraMan you’re the best!)
One of the most life-changing theories on human behavior. According to Ernest Becker (1924-74), Humans create immortality narratives that promise us victory over death: Religions, ideologies, nations, identities. We then kill to defend these narratives.
"It almost makes me angry because I’ve never had simple straight forward interaction as shown in this video. Even looking at people in the background, they are present and not buried in their phones." A 20-year-old sees video of a 1999 HS graduation. afterbabel.com/p/a-time-we-ne…
"...the essence of normality is the refusal of reality." --Ernest Becker
It’s not another moral panic, the social psychologist Jonathan Haidt tells David Remnick, on a new episode of #NewYorkerRadio: the evidence clearly implicates social-media apps for a decline in mental health. Listen here. nyer.cm/ULWTU9s
So excited to see this.

Any plans to show this in UK? Just heard the podcast on #GreyArea which really resonated.
