Empty Spaces - Movie and Live Versions

Movie and Live Versions

On both the film adaptation and the recording of the live performance of this album, the song segues into "What Shall We Do Now?".

Visually, both the movie and live versions feature an animated "fornicating flowers" sequence by Gerald Scarfe, in which one predatory female flower appears to seduce a more shy male flower into sex. The two then briefly morph into a vaguely foetus-like figure before the predatory flower devours the male and flies into the distance of what becomes the animation for "What Shall We Do Now?"

Famous quotes containing the words movie, live and/or versions:

    All television ever did was shrink the demand for ordinary movies. The demand for extraordinary movies increased. If any one thing is wrong with the movie industry today, it is the unrelenting effort to astonish.
    Clive James (b. 1939)

    General scepticism is the live mental attitude of refusing to conclude. It is a permanent torpor of the will, renewing itself in detail towards each successive thesis that offers, and you can no more kill it off by logic than you can kill off obstinacy or practical joking.
    William James (1842–1910)

    The assumption must be that those who can see value only in tradition, or versions of it, deny man’s ability to adapt to changing circumstances.
    Stephen Bayley (b. 1951)
