Reeves, seen throughout the film in brief cutaways, recorded new versions of 15 ballads and standards, all of them chosen by Clooney. To quote from the review of the hardcover in KLIATT, July 2002: Ingold's novel based on the events of the Big Burn, a massive forest fire in the Northwest in the summer of 1910, is complex, with frequent cutaways that enable the reader to follow the stories of three teenagers caught up in this calamity. Such "re-directing jobs," as Waters calls them, are not interested in narrative per se, although the punch-line structure demonstrated in the title of his curtain piece, 12 Assholes and a Dirty Foot ("the last taboo in porn") is deployed throughout in manners ranging from the punning 7 Marys to fifteen Peyton Place picture-postcard landscapes - cutaways, according to the artist, from unshowable sex acts - that culminate in a snapshot of author Grace Metalious' tombstone. |
