Spalding Gray: Terrors of Pleasure

Spalding Gray: Terrors of Pleasure is a 1988 filming of a monologue written and performed by Spalding Gray.

In it, he chronicles the adventures he shared with his girlfriend, Renee, in the Catskills. These took place in and around a cabin he purchased, there in Upstate New York, including the apparent absence of any foundation, and a furnace located in the attic, which is not ideal, if one thinks to take normal heat-flow direction into account.

Famous quotes containing the words terrors and/or pleasure:

    The terrors of the child are quite reasonable, and add to his loveliness; for his utter ignorance and weakness, and his enchanting indignation on such a small basis of capital compel every bystander to take his part.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    The pleasure of love is in loving; and we are happier by the passion we feel than by that we inspire.
    François, Duc De La Rochefoucauld (1613–1680)
