The Poet and the Con is a 78 "personal voice" documentary about the relationship between the filmmaker, Eric Trules, a performance poet, and his uncle, Harvey Rosenberg, a career criminal and confessed murderer. It is also a film about family, crime, morality, and redemption -- with poetry.
"Ambitious, provocative...charismatic."
L.A. Times
"A must see."
Weekly Variety
"Trules speculates on the closeness of the creative and criminal impulses. If ever there was an instance of good coming out of evil, this film is it."
