Voices & Visions: Ezra Pound
Voices & Visions
Winstar, 2000
Painful Obsessions, Beautiful Incantations
Visions and Voices is a spectacular video series and this particular biography of Ezra Pound is a wonderfully balanced portrait. It is a shame that someone so central to the development of modern literature has had his contributions in that area overshadowed by his ...

Voices & Visions - T.S. Eliot
Voices & Visions
Winstar, 2000
American poet T.S. Eliot spent most of his life in England, the land of his forebears, eventually becoming an Anglican convert. As such, footage of a church service in the expatriate's ancestral village of East Coker is featured prominently in this video, as excerpts from his work are read and a variety of poets and authors share their ...

Voices & Visions: Marianne Moore
Voices & Visions
Winstar, 2000
A Dodger Fan and a Car Named Edsel
The Voices and Visions video biography of Marianne Moore is fascinating in every way. The feeling of intimacy achieved is remarkalble. This was aided immensely by the fact that Marianne Moore's apartment was moved to Philadelphia following her death and reassembled ...

Voices & Visions: Emily Dickinson
Voices & Visions
Winstar, 2000
A must for the Dickinson devotee
"Voices & Visions: Emily Dickinson" is an excellent production. I have been a fan of Emily Dickinson's poetry since the early 1990s, but this documentary opened my eyes to aspects of Dickinson's work I had not previously been aware of.
Some of Dickinson's poems, ...

Voices & Visions
Winstar, 2000
Opening with a dramatization of a man driving through a darkened city in an early automobile, stopping to write a poem on a prescription pad, this exploration of the life of the poet-doctor William Carlos Williams is one of the more vibrant in the Voices & Visions series.

Voices & Visions: Walt Whitman
Voices & Visions

Best video on Whitman
I find this video on Whitman one is THE best video out there for teaching purposes. The readings by Galway Kinnell are excellent, as are the biographical analysis by Justin Kaplan (who wrote my favorite biography of Whitman) and the personal interpretations by Allen ...

Voices & Visions: Langston Hughes
Voices & Visions
Unapix Consumer Products, 1995
Outstanding Video!
There was a negative description on this site--it regarded a negative review of a wholeseller--rather than the video itself--which is amazing. Langston Hughes was an icon and remains so. This video has great production value and shows the Hughes in all his historical ...
