Editorial Review:
Ray Bradbury, Dancing Among The Muses, is the film bio of American literary icon and master storyteller Ray Bradbury. Bradbury, author of such classic novels as The Martian Chronicles, The Illustrated Man and Fahrenheit 451 and numerous screenplays such as Herman Melville's metaphoric saga, "Moby Dick". Through intimate interviews with Mr. Bradbury and some of his closest friends and colleagues, the viewer becomes a first hand observer to Bradbury's childhood in Waukegan Illinois, where a mysterious carnival performer changes his life forever. Next as a teenage as Bradbury journeys west with his family to a depression-era Hollywood - a move that puts him in the fantasy world of movies. And finally into the present where Bradbury resides today as the world's premiere storyteller with a list of classic movies, television shows and plays to his credit and more than 50 million books in print throughout the world.

The disk itself even appears to be a cheap DVD recordable with a label, not a standard commercial DVD. The documentary is a collection of bland recent interview clips and lecture footage of a disheveled and often unshaven Bradbury interspersed with oft-repeated photos and fawning interview comments by others.
