Great review of 60 WRITERS/60 PLACES

Matt Bell posted a really great, attentive review of 60 WRITERS/60 PLACES on his website.
Among other things, Matt says that in the film the writers are "transformed via the mere act of reading their own words, their bodies stepping out of their everyday location--a subway car, a garden, a supermarket--into some space more electric."

You can buy 60 WRITERS/60 PLACES on DVD here.
