The review

A chemist pumps up a living head until it is enormous. Georges Méliès, 1901. A child can watch it. The body is a trick. The joke is the size. I laughed once, the way you laugh when you are too tired to want a plot, and then it was over.

A job is technically in the picture and it does not matter. He is not healing anyone. He is making a head into a gag. No house, no neighbor, no promise. You are coached to enjoy the inflation. Tell a small child the body is a trick before it starts, or the size will land as harm instead of a joke.

Journal

Keep The Man with the Rubber Head in the record.

No house has filed a sentence for this yet.

Live Historic number 11. Yours can differ.

The glance

Industry and Household and Piety and Courage and Republic and Temperance and Truth and Stewardship are the thin ones.

Does anyone here do a real job, and does that job matter?

This phone is set for a grown person, just me. Change the ages.

South Park: Bigger, Longer & Uncut

24 instead of 11

South Park: Bigger, Longer & Uncut is still a comedy film, and it scores 24 instead of 11. What you gain is household: Parents are the target and the absence.

Industry
A chemist is present, and the work is pumping a living head.
0
Household
No marriage, parent, or child; a head and a pump are the cast.
1
Piety
No one is asked to stop; the pump keeps going for the size.
1
Courage
The body is a trick, so nobody risks a life they would miss.
0
Republic
No neighbor, law, or town; the gag stays a private inflation.
1
Temperance
The joke is enormous size, which trains you to want it bigger.
2
Truth
A living head that inflates is a camera lie told for a laugh.
1

A body is spent as a gag; nothing is kept once the size lands.

The review

Art is not a character. He is a permission slip for a lens that will not cut away. There is no household, no joke with a point, no dare that teaches a limit. The only skill on display is a refusal to be ashamed. That is not an art a house should pay for.

People will say it is only horror and you can look away. The film's whole method is that you do not look away. Decline it once, out loud, so a younger person hears that a strong stomach is not a virtue.
