Description
Summary:The allure of cinema has captivated audiences since its inception, yet for some, like the author, its appeal remains elusive. This article delves into the author's introspective journey, questioning the conventionalities of cinematic storytelling and the relentless scrutiny of Fernando Pessoa's multifaceted persona. While Pessoa's interest in cinema and diverse literary genres garners attention, the author contends that Pessoa, the poet, transcends his tangible attributes. Through an exploration of Pessoa's verses, particularly those shrouded in obscurity, the author finds resonance and inspiration. Ultimately, the article proposes an anti-cinematic approach to visual storytelling that mirrors the complexity and depth of Pessoa's literary legacy.
