O I should have said why this is potent for me, and indeed it is more etc than poetry.
This was screened in Auckland when I was eighteen and just discovering movies other than Hollywood and um Shepperton.
Virgil Thomson's music, new to me also, pierced me with a strange folkish beauty.
I must have assumed others on poetryetc wd have had the same experience and would rush to thank me for mentioning it's on youtube.
