It was approaching that glorious night of the Oscars, and Mr. Amlan Satan, Slovak-Algerian Catholic-Bostonian found some extra credit intrigue for his Selfie driving around in his rented mod-classic white auto for focus, speeding along outside the city-lines of New England in an area he called home, thinking about his (earned) Oscar-nod for his sharp/sensitized portrayal of a struggling writer who tries to get inspiration from his adopted pet dog, Kano, who ends up tragically being killed in a roadways accident, leaving the distraught writer drinking and seeing ghost-images of his once-beloved angel-dog friend (Facebook-like).



INTERVIEW: You ever have a pet or anything, pal?
MR. SATAN: I had a pet bird, but I set it free, as a young boy (ha).
INTERVIEW: Your portrait of that writer, Ajay Khan, was rather haunting!
MR. SATAN: Kano stole the show, as Khan's angel...dying...returning (ghost).
INTERVIEW: Life on Earth is nature, animalia, words, competition, aliens, etc.
MR. SATAN: You said it; Kano infused in my brain some thing of knowledge.
INTERVIEW: Did you conclude the ghost-haunting by Kano was positive/sad?
MR. SATAN: It wasn't a horror-film per-se, but the ghost was one half know-no.
INTERVIEW: You complemented Kano with a Selfie-sense of sporting-eye, ok!
MR. SATAN: I'll never forget the role of Khan...Facebook-like...dogs for knives.
INTERVIEW: Weird...but brilliant.



Oscars-night fast approached, and Amlan Satan, Slovak-Algerian Catholic-American, felt nervous, looking-around (online!) for reviews/premonitions of victory for his sharp and also very-famous challengers for his category of award-activity, but he seemed to remain Selfie-confident, almost as if Kano was haunting him in real life! He thought about his portrayal of Khan, friend of Kano the dog, who ended up becoming a haunting seen ghost by Amlan's protagonist tragic-character and wondering with vertigo if the specter was sentimental...or tragically hostile, angered by the incomplete-distances created by unnatural or untimely separation from Earth's know-of-jewelry.



AWARDS-SPEECH: "Well, wow...what work brings to the human...what a night, what a culture for speechlessness, or humility (too!)...I feel like Kano's my real competitor here (ok)...but I feel I earned this award, and it's great, since my competitors were all such fine-breed for Oscars-night (sure)...and I have to say what was poignant was thinking of how the loss of an animal-friend (reminding me of how I once set a pet-bird free as a boy!) and the return of a confusing angel-ghost of that animal-friend (a real ghost) makes an Earthling pensive about Heaven/Hell...and this is an Oscars-night 'onside' knowledge (for me)...thanks."
