There is so much rubbish on television nowadays. I have thrown mine out. Thank-you for giving me the chance to see the few real gems I miss.

This was fantastic. I'm just getting into Borges and can feel Labyrinths shifting the way I see/think the world. Nice to see the man behind the words -- cool pacing of the footage, too.

Thank you very much for posting this. It put pictures to what I knew already. It is a justification of Youtube that stuff like this appears. What would Borges have made of the Internet - a real Library of Babel.

The man known as Jorge Luis Borges thought many amazing thoughts. In an amused loneliness, he know wanders the Total Library.
