"In his film, THE POET AND THE CON, Eric Trules has
immersed us, layer through layer, into the center of a filmic
poem, at once dramatic and confessional, poignant and visceral.
Like a good poem, it is multi-valenced at its core, with insights
that instruct and truths that incite. An engaging course-study
of a poet-filmmaker's exploration into his own personal culture
of paradox."
