I haven't read the "Embracing Contraries" book you mention.
I DO see movies when I read some books. I even predict what might happen next by visualization. I have students who do the same thing. Of course not all the students see 'movies.' Some describe the action unfolding in a series of photographs; some 'see' no action at all.
