"It's your representation of the image that theaters the rest." That's what I thought I heard when watching the movie, Sherlock Holmes on Saturday night. I thought, surely this movie could not be so profound and so relevant to creating a role. I guess I needed to hear being my role will create the world around me.

Oh, and it's no surprise that the final imaging of Holmes in the movie is that of him mirrored as if art reflecting life. I immediately recalled the struggle I had in interpreting Chapter 1 of The Order of Things, a book I'm reading. The chapter describes the experience of a painting, Las Meninas, and how the code of signs (sign posts) ground the representations. There it goes again. My role creates a world.

Ahhh Sherlock Holmes. A movie of levels and layers, well beyond the representations created my most of us humans. An Extraordinary Experience, I say.
