Colin Wilson. He was an amazing man! Thanks for that link. I first read his work in the early '70's. I watch very very few movies, but I did see Avatar 1...which he produced & I recognized those characters the second I saw them...he also wrote The Mind Parasites, one of the only fiction books in my library. Thank you,🙏

Avatar: that’s a different Colin Wilson. The occult writer is much older. And not a Hollywood dude

I'll double check, but I think he's the same dude. He died very shortly after Avatar...yes, he was old. But very very wise.

Sorry: Two different people.

I stand corrected! Thanks for enlightening me on that...but I am disappointed. I think that the original Colin Wilson would have approved of Avatar, anyway :-)

Possibly. He was the quintessential tough-minded optimist.
