A bit of an endless drag film about Emerson. The film doesn't really mention a whole lot about the man personally. Like I was surprised that even before the halfway mark, they were telling where he was buried. A lot of this is visual interpretations of his works, sometimes LINE BY LINE. it's a bit grating after a while.
