Trying to picture Woody Allen brandishing a brick at someone.
It’s not working.
Nor can I. Hence the “we” in his proposal. He is presumably referring to bat-wielding and brick-throwing friends.
But he’s right about the language of the fist. It’s the only one those marching brain-dead morons actually understand.
I once watched a more or less insignificant movie, I think a crime story, but one scene was memorable. A few typical orthodox guys with pejes and glasses stood in front of a synagogue, when some Nazis came along looking for trouble. Then, unexpectedly and within a matter of seconds, the Nazis were beaten up and ran off. The orthodox guys had fought them off with their Karate skills. It’s a fantastic idea that these educated people of the book stand for strength and combat-readiness. This is important in many ways, even concerning a possibility for peace in the Middle East. I’m thinking of Leibowitz’s argument.
