"Feminist comedy," practically an oxymoron, had a couple of good years after WWII.

Out of the choked Devonian waters emerged sight and sound and the music that rolls invisible through the composer's brain. They are there still in the ooze along the tideline, though no one notices.

I must think things out for myself and try to understand them. ~Henrik Ibsen
