Insignificance
directed by
Nicolas Roeg
Super rare, super unknown, Lynchean, Roy Orbison music video for the ultra-obscure, Nicolas Roeg-directed sleeper,
starring
Theresa Russell in an impossible-to-describe story about Time, Space, Synchronicity, Celebrity, Sex and the Atom Bomb, and the chance encounters of: Albert Einstein, Marilyn Monroe (T. Russell), Senator Joe McCarthy (Tony Curtis), Joe DiMaggio (Gary Busey--yeah, I'm gonna recheck that one),
including one of my favorite moments in all of Roeg's oeuvre:
E=MC2 demonstration
between
Marilyn (in her infamous white halter dress) and Einstein,
where upon conclusion, she exclaims in a smokey, post-coital pout,
"That was the best conversation I ever had!"
This video, which, appropriately enough, I happened on serendipitously, is reward (Jack McCann's Gold) for tirelessly toiling in the thankless,unmarked search for the uncrowned video-Rood, and only existed in one very Romanian corner of the Internet--until now!
