He talked to much? What the fuck is that supposed to mean? He proselytized
exprimenta/a-g film by "talking" about film in lecture halls and classrooms
across the country. He did as much to ensure the continued existence of
this type of film as anyone, ever, period. And his "talking" also financed
his films, which are among the greatest works of film art ever made.
