I see the whole concept of Generation X implies that everyone has lost hope.
I resist when someone calls me a novelist: it implies some kind of inherent superiority of the novel. I'm not a novelist, I'm a writer.
Movies become art after editing. Instead of just reproducing reality, they juxtapose images of it. That implies expression; that's art.
