Hazard’s Portrait of Robert Bly
I stumbled on this lovely portrait of Robert Bly by Mike Hazard, which has been on YouTube for seven years. (Yes, I’m typically that far behind.) There is something timeless in it, though, courtesy of Hazard’s restrained, insightful commentary and the way he has structured the film. If you never had the opportunity to attend a Bly reading, this will give you plenty of those aha moments that seem to arise both from the words and from the silences beneath and above the words. I recommend that you set aside an hour to take it in at one go.Read More
