Done with Utena

Whew! We just finished watching the last episode of Revolutionary Girl Utena. I’m exhausted. How long did that take us? Two years, maybe? Jeez!
Just as well, I guess, since it meant I got to see the last few episodes having recently read some Andrea Dworkin, which provides a surprisingly good perspective on it. Well, second-hand Dworkin, since I can’t really stand to read her actual writing. (I wonder what the effect would be on western culture if academic could learn to write in a style that ordinary people enjoyed reading.) But I can’t find the links I was looking at, so the rest of you are out of luck.
Now, where’d I put that copy of the Utena movie...?
