Cinema Haikus #001-#004

Burden of Dreams (Les Blank, 1982)
Pull a ship though the
Jungle and you can swallow
Indigenous spit

[cinema haiku #001]

Exiting the Factory (Louis Lumière, 1895)
As subjects pass by
Are documentary film's
Questions still looming?

[cinema haiku #002]

Young Mr. Lincoln (John Ford, 1939)
Fonda is tall and
Can carry a speech like Abe's
American myth

[cinema haiku #003]


Nashville (Robert Altman, 1975)
Celebrity crazed
Country of musicians sell
Ideals for records

[cinema haiku #004]
