Derek Jarman's Blue weaves a phenomenological tapestry that serves as both a political call to action and a meditation on illness, dying, and love.Written poetically and surrealistically, Jarman's text moves through myriad scenes, some banal, others fantastical. Facing death and a cascade of pills, Jarman presents his illness in delirium and metaphors. Stories of quotidien life--getting coffee, reading the newspaper, and walking down the sidewalk--escalate to visions of Marco Polo, the Taj Mahal, or blue fighting yellow.
Jarman writes, "For Blue there are no boundaries or solutions."Originally released as a feature film in 1993, the year before Jarman's death due to an AIDS-related illness, Blue is a daring and He contemplates the physicality of emotions in lyrical prose as he grounds this story in the constant return to Blue--a color, a feeling, a funk.
