Aqui Peter Greenaway se revela

Alter Ego
"Well the title of this huge ambitious project is called The Tulse Luper Suitcase. What's, I suppose, initially important is we should hang on to the word Suitcase rather than Tulse Luper. For me it's an opportunity to go back to a whole series of private mythological characters that I invented at the very beginning of my film career, and we're talking now, I suppose, about first films I ever made in the late 1960s, beginning to get a lot more serious throughout the 1970s, and they culminated in 1978 with, I suppose, my first feature film I made, it was called The Falls. It was called that because all the characters, their surnames all began with the letters F A L L. It was a time of examination of film structuralism and there was a lot of organisation of material that was related to the business of non-narrative structures. This was my attempt to put together a huge encyclopedia of material, which was essentially about one of my fascinations, which was ornithology and notions of flight, the ultimate human dream is the desire to fly. And amongst all the characters I invented for this three-and-a-half hour film was a man called Tulse Luper - Tulse rhymes with Pulse, a vegetable fed to cattle; Luper is vaguely a translation from the Latin for the wolf. But for me he was a character who, I suppose, was like an alter ego. I was a very shy young man in those days and I found it very, very difficult to say Peter Greenaway said, so I blamed all my extravagances, obsessions and fascinations on this man called Tulse Luper."
(...) "But I think now that I really must get to very serious grips with all the potential of this vast encyclopedic picture-making process".
