Blue (1993 movie)
Blue is the last film of director Derek Jarman (1942-1994). At the time when he made the film, he was blind and dying of AIDS.The film is his last testament as a film-maker, and consists of a single shot of saturated blue colour filling the screen, as background to a soundtrack where Jarman describes his life and vision.
The soundtrack ends with the words:
In time,
No one will remember our work
Our life will pass like the traces of a cloud
And be scattered like
Mist that is chased by the
Rays of the sun
For our time is the passing of a shadow
And our lives will run like
Sparks through the stubble.I place a delphinium, Blue, upon your grave
