i saw the best minds...

of my generation destroyed by madness, starving hysterical naked, dragging themselves through the negro streets at dawn looking for an angry fix...


allen ginsberg's 1955 poem howl has been turned into a film. i wasn't sure what to expect but i did enjoy it. it was a mixture of interviews (ginsberg played by james franco), animation and the court case against the publisher of howl. mixed through that was the reading of howl in it's entirety. so a bit different, but i liked it. so there. snap snap snap of my fingers.
