Lidia Yuknavitch: "well well well.
i just had the greatest art experience of my weird life.
i mean the ZENITH of art experiences.
no, not a publication. not any fancy award. not a big bag of money, or fame, or attention.
just me with my witch dawgs and soul sisters Janice and Ravyn and a squad of brilliant, fearless, valkyrie women in a private screening of The Chronology of Water.
so yeah. i finally saw it. i'm glad it was now. with Kristen and all those spitfires in the room.
a film dreamed of, conceived, brought to vision by the singularly perfect Kristen Stewart, in the face of all those NO's, in the face of fuck.
the ZENITH for me is witnessing the art of others when you yourself try to make art into a portal. it’s my reason for being—that
art begets other art, unstoppably, unapologetically.
i sobbed, i laughed my ass off, i ground my teeth, i shouted you motherfucker, ate a little paper (what. i’m still me), i swooned, i cheered, i saw miraculous strength in girls on screen bloom from violence and grief.
when the credits finished rolling i just shouted FUCK.
there is not a man on the planet who could have directed this film. the image intensities. the patterns. the forms. the accumulations. the repetitions. the juxtapositions. the recursions. the sounds. the environments. the waves of story.
there is only Kristen Stewart and Imogen Poots taking the dare.
I’m for them. All of them. Try to stop them. I dare you. Won’t happen. They are insurgent.
shout outs to Jen Dunlap, Maggie Mclean, Dylan Meyer, Paris Hurley, Corey Waters, Imogen Poots (oh my fucking god), Thora Birch, Jim Belushi (dude. so. accurate), Earl Cave, all the actors and every human who worked their asses off to make this film.
and thank you water."
