Yes, watched it three times over the period of about two months. Why? Because I had to.***The only art I consume and reconsume is music.
This is a tall statement that is hard to believe. How about architecture and paintings, sculpture? Poetry?
Follow Ups:
Buildings are encountered multiple times but I've never been particularly into architecture and mostly just walk in and out without deep reflection. That is also a form of "appreciation" or "consumption" based on accidental proximity and I don't go out of my way for it...even though I suppose I appreciate an interesting building as much as the next person. Now certainly there are paintings and other visual arts that I've appreciated more than once so in that sense I did overspeak. but it's nothing like the attention I pay to music. I do like poetry but don't read it so much and there isn't much beyond Rilke that I return to for repeated consumption.In essence my statement can stand even though it contained exaggeration. Just a personal thing as to how connected I feel to music.
