Maradona by Kusturica
From The Art and Popular Culture Encyclopedia
"God is the only being who, in order to reign, doesn't even need to exist."--Baudelaire, Fusées, epigraph "I asked myself, 'Who is this man? Who is this footballing magician, this Sex Pistol of international football, this cocaine victim who kicked the habit, looked like Falstaff and was as weak as spaghetti?' If Andy Warhol had still been alive, he would have definitely put Maradona alongside Marilyn Monroe and Mao Tse-tung. I'm convinced that if he hadn’t been a footballer, he'd've become a revolutionary."--Maradona by Kusturica (2008) by Emir Kusturica |
