Amber Tamblyn on how writing poetry influences her directing

Every week on The A.V. Club Hosted By John Teti, John finds at least one interesting culture-maker to chat with. A couple of weeks ago it was actor-director-poet Amber Tamblyn, who talked with him about her directorial debut, Paint It Black. In this outtake from the interview, she talks about the intersection between writing poetry—a lifelong pursuit of hers—and directing some particularly striking scenes. You can watch The A.V. Club show every Thursday night, only on Fusion.
