The Intent to Live

I’m not sure when I first heard the name Larry Moss but, in what ever context I first learned about him, it must have been intriguing enough for me to slip over to Kindle and download his book.  Ah, I love instant gratification.  Course it has its trade-offs with having an actual spine to crack and pages to flip, dog ear and wear thin, but I digress.  It wasn’t far into the first chapter when I realized I had stumbled on a little pot of gold, so I immediately had to google him to find out more.  Suffice to say that this man is a genius and has made a major impact on Hollywood films in the last decade.  While googling him I ran across this fantastic video.  Its an hour long but you won’t notice.

He makes a couple of references to “must see” films – all classics and some are really hard to track down.  I was able to watch The Goddess (in pieces on youtube) and in spite of the mini screen, and the constant interruptions of having to find and play the next video, I was blown away by  Kim Stanely’s performance.  I’m kind of ashamed to admit, I’d never even heard of her until I read Larry’s book.  I’d love to know what you think about this video and if it inspires anyone to buy his book.
