When running a search using "Kinematograph" and "Ezra Pound" I discovered the following in the Thorold Dickinson Cinema Collection at London Institute: Camberwell College of Arts: "script of 'Testament of Francois Villi' by Ezra Pound, undated" I'm not hip enough on Pound to know to what this may refer to, but if it's fodder here's a link to the site. You'll find it at the end of the second paragraph in the section beginning "CONTENT Scope and content/abstract". http://www.aim25.ac.uk/cgi-bin/frames/fulldesc?inst_id=57&coll_id=6024 --- Burt Hatlen <[log in to unmask]> wrote: > Pounders, > > I've been thinking about the parallels between > Pound's poetics and the film aesthetic of the 1920s, > and I'm looking for information on what movies Pound > may have seen during this period and what he might > have thought/said about them.
