CGiii Comment

Walt Whitman will be spinning in his grave!

There is some conjecture as whether this poem was originally addressed to a man...but, the published poem addresses a woman.

A folly of a film.

The(ir) Blurb...

Based on the poem of the same name by Walt Whitman, Once I Passed is dedicated, on one hand, to the obviously autobiographical context with all its personal drama, and on the other hand to the content of the poem itself, the profoundly quiet, yet powerful story of two lovers.
