mmobility as a neurotic defense against this impossibility, this lack, this refusal. Subtle way of escaping any interaction (...).Immobility as insurance against this impossibility, erected into a system, becomes a model in the same way as the star system: creation of stereotypes, models of behavior (. . ( this one) appear when the old identification patterns are in decline and come to replace the fallen stars: Marilyn Monroe is shaken by identity. So many images generated by the cinema, glorified images. A reality is created (the image is always more beautiful than reality) where the identity of the characters remains immutable (. . .) Fixed shots, still images, fixed gazes: all that remains is a lightly saturated, deframed blue image; most often illegible — shapes unidentifiable — barely recognizable faces. L. J. Kley
