What in the world are you referring to? If you lost respect for Frost because of this video, I'd suggest you never had reverence for the man or his work.
This is RB's gloomiest line, because A lover's quarrel is a deep cut and loss; They tried to have the gap patched and mended, But something inside had snapped and ended.
Thousands thanks for posting this. I really appreciate. I have just bought his collected poems, I read them with a dictionary since I am not a native speaker, so I take my time, and I really love his contemplative quality. He is such a wordsmith. Thanks again.
hang in there---at first this is not so great, before the coeed crowds he seems the merest charmer, the performing version at least until the 10 minute mark....read the poems again to hear the poet.
Alot of good poets I have read, living or dead, I've lived long enough to know a few. In any case, if at first I was too young and impatient for Frost's poems, I can read them now. They work a charm for me. Frost is mostly for still, contemplative sorts. The restless the young the people who know right or wrong, the people who know no time to spare, cannot bear it.
You're so mistaken, Mr. ALLcaps.. Talk about myth; what you have suggested is myth. You have exemplified the little you know about Robert Frost. There are a number of books you could read if you choose to. The only thing sinister here is your response which smacks more of your ignorance and dislike of Frost than any truth he expressed. No doubt you consider yourself superior. I have known you all of my life. That is meant figuratively. You have a problem with that, don't you? Whatever you do, you will never write a poem finer than "After Apple Picking" and much else. Eleanor Frost once made fun of Robert Frost's poem even before Frost and she were married. His poem titled, "Home Burial" is one of the great poems composed in the English language which addresses the difference regarding how individuals, not merely men and women, deal with grief. I expect, had you read the poem, I doubt you have, you would admit its greatness. Instead you condemn and that speaks volumes. You are not so unlike Eleanor Frost who as she died refused to forgive Frost for giving her the life she lived; she was responsible too for that life. Robert Frost did not cause the suicide of his son. I have listened to people like you all of my life talk as if you and they know anything regarding fact about this man, this poet. You might read Elizabeth Sargeant's book about Frost titled "Robert Frost: The Trial By Existence," or you might read his poems, all of them. You would know then what poet Benjamin Saltman once said about himself: "Anything anybody wishes to know about me can be found in my poems." You misspelled "endgame." Robert Frost's and his family's cellar was not so full of potatoes as you are of yourself, Mr. ALLcaps. You are the sinister one.

Do you think that there is anything produced in the world by a human who is flawless? Something that you consume or appreciate? Are you assuming that if Frost never pursued writing that he would have been a flawless person? That’s a big assumption. He failed at farming. Have you succeeded in everything that you have attempted? Are you saying that if he had stayed a teacher and never written poetry that he could have saved his daughter from mental problems, that his family would never have been hungry or suffered? Is Frost known as a humanitarian? I understand what you’re saying. I can’t watch Bing Crosby movies because his kids said that he abused them. In high school Kurt Cobain took advantaged of a developmentally delayed girl to have sex with her. Life isn’t always sunshine and rainbows. Humans are nature and nature can be vicious. Mental illness exists. So does poetry.
A deeply moving piece of documentary filmmaking.
Jesus Christ. Such a disappointment. I respected Frost till now.

The Faces.....Pure beauty and clarity of honesty

at 5:00 he recounts the famous remark "provide provide or someone will provide for you" he does not say who he said it to --it was Henry Wallace 1948
