SAID THE WEBMASTER...

Now and zen I think about life and stuff.

Roman Polanski's character in The Tenant asks his beatnik girlfriend a great philosophical question, which I'll paraphrase here: If I cut off my arms, I say, "This is me, and these are my arms." If I cut off my legs, I say, "This is me, and these are my legs." But if I cut off my head, do I say, "This is me, and this is my body," or "This is me, and this is my head."? What right does my head have to say it's me?

I know how I'd answer that question.

I love to write. I love to watch movies. I love to read. Film Freak Central is for people who share these passions.

This is me, and this is my website.

-Bill Chambers, Editor-in-Chief
