Review of Neruda (2016) by Anthony Lane for New Yorker — 27 Dec 2016
Where “Paterson” is tranquil to the point of inertia, Neruda, with its jumpy shifts of scene, its doses of casual surrealism, and its mashing of high politics against low farce, struck me as more of a poem.
It reminds us that movies, by their very nature, owe far more to poetry than they ever will to the novel. The story is only the start.
