Informed by the criticism of iconic filmmaker Pier Pasolini; The Cinema of Poetry offers spirited explorations of poetrys influence on classic films by Dimitri Kirsanoff; Ingmar Bergman; and Andrey Tarkovsky. It also highlights how avant-garde films made by Joseph Cornell; Lawrence Jordan; Jerome Hiler; Gregory Markopoulos; and others found rich; unexpected sources of inspiration in a diverse group of poets that includes St?phane Mallarm?; Emily Dickinson; H.D.; Ezra Pound; Robert Duncan; John Ashbery; and Aeschylus. Written with verve and panache; it represents the culmination of P. Adams Sitneys career-long fascination with the intersection of poetry; film; and the avant-garde.

His writing style connects to the audience; and gives the reader the motivation to jump into creativity! He encourages failure; something thats not completely in line with modern day American society. Great work!0 of 0 people found the following review helpful.
