we've been discussing the peculiar (as in unique) form of "Blasted." what about "Cleansed," though? what do you think is the aim of moving completely away from realism? in having just short DISJOINTED scenes, no exposition (and, hence, hardly any information on the characters' past (or present, for that matter) life & experiences), and, also, its clipped obscure dialogue (i know sarah was going for SUBtext - but what do you feel is the aim? surely, more than leaving it up to the spectator to decide? talking of spectators, what do you think could the effect be? and to what end?)
i know, loads of discuss points - just interested in your thoughts
