The society of four stars





Films and their plots. Musicals and their cast. Plays and their context. Postmodern anachronism. Post-analysis: outstanding - only four stars, however. The press say, few critics complain, but, as usual, we do accept it: four stars. Where´s, indeed, the ¨mis-star¨ to complete the 5 stars from media constellation? Well, someone might try to be reasonable, it is a bit - yes, we became, because of our awkwardness, ¨sons of a bit¨ - difficult to express straight away, so... Speechless. In fact, less is a fashion word nowadays: less fat, less sugar, less stars, less faith. On the other hand, not being so Nietzschean, there is more: more bureaucracy, more indifference... As a result, we´ve got four stars and a moderate (shall I say artificial?) happiness...
