Beat
Newly Added
•
1h 33m
Directed by Gary Walkow • 2000 • United States
Starring Courtney Love, Kiefer Sutherland, Ron Livingston
The iconoclastic, live-fast-die-young ethos of the Beat generation drives this potent portrait of some of the major literary lions of the twentieth century. From 1940s New York to 1950s Mexico City, the artistic and love lives of writers William S. Burroughs (Kiefer Sutherland), Lucien Carr (Norman Reedus), Allen Ginsberg (Ron Livingston), and Jack Kerouac (Daniel Martínez) converge, with Burroughs’s wife, the brilliant and volatile intellectual Joan Vollmer (Courtney Love), at the group’s center. As sexual boundaries break down and romantic rivalries simmer, a night of drunken debauchery takes a shocking turn that will haunt the group forever.
