Nice review. Those films always seemed to me to be taped poetry. I assume others have been struck by this, but I am frequently astonished by Buk's ability to start anywhere and talk and make perfect sentences, one after the other. Alot of writers are not articulate. Vladimir Nabokov had to have his interview questions beforehand since he was such a poor speaker. Buk just GOES--and wonderful streams of images, metaphors, etc. Yep, not all writers are good talkers.
