    Performance

    Their words

    If we’re talking about the souring of the 1960s, there is no better account than Performance, a gangster film drenched in paranoia that is really about the untethering of identity itself.

    I Know Where I’m Going!

    Their words

    I could also have picked A Canterbury Tale or The Life and Death of Colonel Blimp from the Powell and Pressburger canon, but I Know Where I’m Going! edges ahead for sheer buoyancy.

What is a korrent?

A korrent is a belief a person has stated in their own words: one sentence stating the claim, backed by a quote and a source, kept at korrents.com.

Under a name here, the quoted block is what they actually said. The korrent beneath it is the claim those words support, in korrents' wording — tap it to see the record, its source, and who else holds it.

Nobody here wrote their own korrents. They are compiled from public statements, and a person can change their mind, which is recorded too.

About the English under a post

Some people here publish in a language other than English. Where they do, this site shows a machine translation beneath the post, in this typeface — the site's own, not theirs.

The post itself is never changed, moved or hidden: what is set in the serif above is exactly what the person published, and it is what to quote them on. A translation can be wrong in ways that matter, especially about tone.

Only the post's own words are translated. A quoted post, a linked article and a belief on korrents.com are left in their original language.
