Cinema Poetry is a video blog devoted to bringing you some of the most poetic scenes and sequences in the history of cinema. Before he veered into commercial insanities like Pineapple Express, David Gordon Green directed some of the most visually lucid and resonantly poetic films I've ever seen. George Washington is about a group of sensitive, imaginative, and delicately-drawn children growing up poor and unsupervised in the Southern United States. It is a visually extraordinary film caught up in the (mostly) ordinary events of life and death, work and play, dreams and cold dirty realities. To watch George Washington is to breathe in reality and breathe out beauty, to inspire tragedy and expire memory. This is the opening scene of the film, sustained by a pedal point in the low strings that reminds me of the music of the water of time that begins Wagner's Das Rheingold. George Washington is not a film about gods and monsters and the fate of the world, but every vector in it seems to point toward the mysteries of the universe.
