Quote by Jerry Saltz
A metaphysical tour de force of untethered meaning and involuting

A metaphysical tour de force of untethered meaning and involuting interlocking contrapuntal rhythms, The Clock is more than a movie or even a work of art. It is so strange and other-ish that it becomes a stream-of-consciousness algorithm unto itself – something almost inhuman. – Jerry Saltz

My nominee for Best Picture of the year – maybe the best picture ever, because its essentially made up of and is an ecstatic love letter to all other movies – is Christian Marclays endlessly enticing must-see masterpiece The Clock. – Jerry Saltz

We are sick with fascination for the useful tools of names and numbers, of symbols, signs, conceptions and ideas. Meditation is therefore the art of suspending verbal and symbolic thinking for a time, somewhat as a courteous audience will stop talking when a concert is about to begin. – Alan Watts
