AB - "When we read a poem, we can sit back and think about it; when you hear it performed, the passion and personality emerge. Wouldn't it be great to have the best of both worlds available at the click of a mouse? Dramatically combining two media, <em>Poetry in Motion</em> makes it happen. Ron Mann's superb film of twenty-four celebrated poets performing their work is linked to printed texts on the screen. The result is a splendid synergy between the spoken and written word, a breakthrough for people dissatisfied with the single dimension of the printed page, and a perfect tonic for anyone who thinks poetry is dull. You don't have to be a poetry lover to be seduced by William Burroughs' unforgettable rasp or Helen Adam's psychedelic reminiscences, but this celebration may turn you into one." -- from <em>Voyager</em>
