(did you have a hard time watching that one guy talk? i can't remember his name, but his tongue was out of control - every time he came on screen, lizzy, adam, and i would hold up our hands to block his mouth. i swear we were not intoxicated!) i don’t think that’s a contradiction - you can be a fan of both minimalist fonts and super crazy shit that looks hand-drawn if you want :)

I have to confess a soft spot for modernist design and how it looks so clean and minimalist. So I'm naturally a sucker for sans serif fonts, like Helvetica and (especially) Gill Sans. But I also appreciated the way the film presented the viewpoint of modernist typefaces and design as soulless and bourgeois. I am a man of contradictions.
