You've a penchant for landing great interviews, but Arendt hadn't given one in (as far as I know) over half a century. Great conversation about her reference in Between Past and Future to blind Demodocus and her ideas about remembrance and history (I had forgotten about it all). Quite an upgrade on the reviews I've read about the movie. I laughed out loud at her observation about IMAX: "Plato’s cave has come a long way . . ." And, yes, bring back epic theater! And please conjure up more of these interviews when the, um, spirit moves!
