Two New Poems Inspired by "Detour" for Perisphere

I composed a pair of villanelles using only the real spoken dialogue of the two lead characters in the classic film noir Detour for Perisphere, the Trylon Cinema's blog.

“For No Good Reason At All”: The Dialogue of Detour in Two Villanelles – Perisphere

Detour is playing in the Trylon's 16th Film Noir Festival in collaboration with The Heights, another beautiful theater in Minneapolis where the movie is being screened on February 13th. I can't recommend this film highly enough, I've seen it many times and it remains as fascinating, lacerating, and bleak as the first time I saw it. 

Check out the full festival lineup here: Highways of Doom: The 16th Film Noir Festival – TRYLON

And be sure to keep an eye on the always outstanding programming at the Trylon here: TRYLON
