Theater is far superior to film in poetry, in abstract poetry.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
Poetry is a totally different art than film.
Theater can be elusive and poetic, but it doesn't thrive when it doesn't reach an audience.
I think poets are much more dramatic, more theatrical than fiction writers.
I don't have a preference between theatre and film; I like to do both. But I will say that there's something about theatre that is more nourishing and sustaining than film ever can be.
It's easier to go from theatre to film than the other way round. In film you're absolutely loved and cossetted and cared for. In film your director makes your performance. In theatre you're carrying it all.
Theater is something that as a performance artist you have to hate.
Theatre's a whole different beast to film. It requires a lot more of you.
I've always loved film more than theater.
A film is never really good unless the camera is an eye in the head of a poet.
I don't think that theater is the higher medium, that it's better than film.
