Nothing Lasts Forever

posted in: The Film | 0

Yes, it’s true. Nothing lasts forever. There will always be nothing. Even stars die. And eventually, all the stars in the universe will turn into black holes and no new stars will be forming and the universe will succumb to “heat death.” And the universe will be nothing. Forever. But that’s quite a number of years from now, so let’s not dwell on it.

What brought this on, you ask?

Tango OctogenarioTango Octogenario existed on the Reel 13/Reel New York website. It was a nice showcase for the film and included a print and video interview with yours truly. It was up there for seven or eight years, a nice run, but Channel 13, New York City’s PBS station, recently redesigned their website and now it’s gone. Some believe that once something is on the internet it’s there forever, just waiting for someone to type a keyword so that it can pop up on a screen. Your entire history, your good deeds, your transgressions, all of it, accessible in an instant.  I’m here to tell you  this is not always so.

Nothing lasts forever, and though it saddened me that Tango is no longer online, and I didn’t enjoy updating the links on the blog and the website, maybe that’s how it should be.
