It's Impossible to Learn to Plow by Reading Books
- It's Impossible to Learn to Plow by Reading Books
"It's Impossible to Learn to Plow by Reading Books" is the first feature film by Richard Linklater, filmed on Super 8 and edited at a public access tv station, with Linklater starring and handling all production duties.
The film is 85 minutes long and features little dialogue. In its minimal and non-traditional plot, the main character travels about the country meeting with various acquaintances when not taking part in various mundane, day-to-day activities. There is no real rising action or climax, and Linklater's character does not change substantially throughout the course of the film.
The film never enjoyed a widespread release, and its reception with critics was generally poor. It is available on DVD only as a bonus feature on "Slacker" from The Criterion Collection.
