FILM It's commonly said of Nathaniel Dorsky's films that they are beautiful beyond words. Which is true as far as it goes, but then the same could be said of many poems and they are words. What's clear is that Dorsky is absorbed with a classical fulfillment of form, and as such his films do better with poetics than interpretation (he has himself supplied a fine entry point with his slim volume Devotional Cinema). Poetics in this context means respecting the mystery and proceeding gingerly with gesture, metaphor, and detail. No one ever says of a Dorsky film, "I liked it the more I thought about it." Conversely, watching a second or third time one marvels to find the beauty springing to life with the same force, subtler and lovelier now for this trick of renewal. No one ever says of a sunset, "I've seen this one before." Delete the scoop?
