kitsch

December 6th, 2008

 from the NYT review of "Australia" (a film my sister claims should be watched with gin & tonics (and I’m sure she’s right)):

“Kitsch causes two tears to flow in quick succession,” Milan Kundera wrote. “The first tear says: How nice to see children running on the grass! The second tear says: How nice to be moved, together with all mankind, by children running on the grass! It is the second tear that makes kitsch kitsch.”
