The emotions always have a quite definite class basis; the form they take at any time is historical, restricted and limited in specific ways.

Zero African novels.
I'm not being as generous as Achebe who includes Camus.
This is entrenched ignorance.

Michael Powell explains why "A Canterbury Tale" (1944) was a tremendous flop:
‘'A Canterbury Tale' (1944) was really Emeric Pressburger’s film. I’m a director; I hate writing. With 'A Canterbury Tale', I had doubts, because the script had a wonderful idea—this man who cares so much about truth and beauty that he has to act for it, even on pain of being regarded as some sort of lunatic for what he does—but it was a Continental idea that did not fit into an English film.
If I was going to make an English film with it at all, I should have done more with it, translated it more. But I didn’t. I filmed it straight and the result was a tremendous flop. Since then I’ve never filmed anything I had reservations about, as I’m not conceited enough to think I’m so good I can get away with anything I’m not absolutely sure of."
(Michael Powell's interview to The Times, 1960)
P.S: On this day, 82 years ago, 'A Canterbury Tale' (1944) premiered in Canterbury, UK.
