Ray Bradbury talks about his beginnings as a writer and his personal connection to two stories Dandelion Wine and Something Wicked This Way Comes then moves on to talk about converting his stories for the silver screen.  He goes into depth about what is involved when you convert one of your own stories into a movie and contrasts  with his work as screenwriter for the movie Moby Dick.   
Having written and published scores of poems Bradbury talks about how poetry can pave the way for the compression of ideas and images a movie needs.  He then ends with the best advice for how young writers should navigate their career without breaking their spirit or their heart.
