As Williams writes, “A Horse Walks into a Bar is an exhibition which presents moving images from the Film Archive’s collections alongside new work by local Wellington artists. The exhibition asks, What is humour? And how does it work?” (read more) Also featuring work by Claire Harris, Dad and Tracy, Caroline Johnston, John Lake and Chris Clements.

I haven’t watched this version all the way through before. its great John Key talks himself into oblivion till he like everyone becomes nothing. in the grand scheme of things he is nothing. its a shame he has to be something in my life time rather than nothing.

Thanks Draw! I love the way you’ve read it – as Key talking himself into oblivion. And I agree – it is a shame that he has to be somebody in our lives.
