Default Re: What's the last movie you watched II?

Howl. In part it is about the early life of Allen Ginsberg. In part it is about his 1955 poem, which with Eliot's The Waste Land was the most influential of the 20th century. And in part it is about the obscenity trial of City Lights publisher and fellow Beat poet Lawrence Ferlinghetti (or little Larry Ferling, as he's known to this fellow Heel).

James Franco does a creditable job as the poet of Paterson . . . or would have was that Ginsberg and not William Carlos Williams.
