We all can imagine it: that immediate tug at one’s insides, that look which registers beyond any look, the sky-opening-hallelujah of a meeting: falling in love, at first sight. And even if we haven’t really ever felt it ourselves, the idea has assumed a cultural omnipresence. This is the variety of romantic acquaintance against which all others are measured. It’s doled out to us on a daily basis by movies, TV, magazines, advertisements for underwear, chocolate. This piece would be an exploration of where this notion of love-upon-impact comes down—is it Hollywood fantasy? Everyday reality? … Either way, why does it have such a hold on us?
The piece I envision would combine audio of people of a range of ages talking about whether or not love at first sight exists, and why they’ve come to believe what they do about it. I’d have a couple of people telling their own stories of it, and want to establish a tension between the “believers” and the “skeptics.”
To accompany this audio, I imagine a long, panning shot of a crowd of people. Perhaps at Grand Central station, or some place where we’re offered a large range of ages, ethnicities. The camera rests on individual faces, but only momentarily…as if implying that anyone of these people could hold the possibility of that lightening strike.
