Movie Reviews of Classical Baby: The Poetry Show
Movie Review: Intro to GOOD poetry
Summary: 5 Stars
The Classical Baby: Poetry is putatively for children. Granted, it is quite pleasant to watch - especially if you are a child. But I think this production is more valuable for its contents and the value we might place on it, should we already know a little bit about poetry. All the reviews on this site about this production are quite pleasant, but this one is written to the person that knows a few names and wants to know more. How would you like to hear William Carlos Williams read HIS OWN poetry in his high, quavery voice, and then the entire (short) poem is repeated by a little girl - by memory. Then Andy Garcia, whose Spanish is absolutely perfect, recites a poem about a butterfly. Langston Hughes recites his poem about rain in April while children are seen playing in the rain - who could forget his voice? And the finale is a mother rabbit telling her baby rabbit the Browning poem How Do I Love Thee - read by Gwyneth Paltrow! It is truly a memorable finale for a fine video. Look how much it costs! Isn't that a STEAL for some of the greatest poetry ever written? If you have a child old enough to watch this production, you won't be sorry. But don't let that stop you if you don't have children! DO IT FOR YOURSELF!
