The American films on the Civil War and
Custer are intended to evoke all the class struggles of the nineteenth century;
and even their potential future. Guy Debord
The theme of the film is not the spectacle, but real life. Guy Debord
The Charge of the Light Brigade is intended to
crudely and eulogistically “represent” a dozen years of the SI’s actions! Guy Debord
The entire film (including the images, but already in the text of the spoken “commentary”) is based on the theme of water. Guy Debord
In the present film, for example, I am simply stating a few truths over a background of
images that are all trivial or false. This film disdains the image-scraps of which it is
composed. Guy Debord, In girum imus nocte et consumimur igni
I pride myself on having made a film out of whatever
rubbish was at hand; and I find it amusing that people will complain about it who
have allowed their entire lives to be dominated by every kind of rubbish. Guy Debord, In girum imus nocte et consumimur igni
