eXistenZ!!!

Do you remember when you found out you wouldn’t live forever?… That’s the basis of all existentialist thought, which, of course, is an underpinning of the movie. It’s not called “eXistenZ” for nothing’. (Cronenberg)
‘As a card-carrying existentialist I think all reality is virtual.
It’s all invented. It’s collaborative.- I jokingly said that the movie is existentialist propaganda. I meant it playfully, of course. But I have come to believe that this is the game we are playing’ (Cronenberg)

NAUSEA, EXACTLY (joint venture with E.V.)
