Title: Wordsworth's Ode: Intimations of Immortality Post by: carl r on January 21, 2008, 11:08:25 AM In the film "Control" about Joy Division lead singer Ian Curtis there's a scene where he uses a bit of poetry to impress:
MY heart leaps up when I behold A rainbow in the sky: So was it when my life began; So is it now I am a man; So be it when I shall grow old, Or let me die! The Child is father of the Man; I could wish my days to be Bound each to each by natural piety. Just thought I'd mention it. I guess it was originally VDP's idea to use this in Smile? Funny how it fits Brian so perfectly. |
