When Pressed Do Chicken Pox Go White

Beat Generation - Writing drinking, whoring, - Part 3 -

Neal Cassady was the night of February 3, 1968 somewhere in Mexico along the railway tracks, it was raining - he suddenly decided he was tired, too tired to continue. So he lay down on the tracks. And soon after he fell into a coma and not wake up. Why? Because it is a lethal cocktail of drugs and alcohol had intus. Why am I telling you this?

Neal Cassady of the unsung hero of a poem, it was the 27 year old Allen Ginsberg in 1955 wrote: "Howl" - you remember still on my review of this film . Neal Cassady, then, the hero who was always drunk, which could not grow up and wanted Cassady, the beatnik haunts in all minds, not only in Ginsberg. There is a film made in 1997 with Thomas Jane and Keanu Reeves: "Like the first time I committed suicide" in which the main character is Cassady. In this is Time at the center when he was 19, his first girlfriend wanted to kill himself, fell into a coma, and he after two or three visits, always left it all because he not endured. But she was unexpectedly back into his life when he was just along with a sixteen year old girl ... Cassady is the way the main character in the famous novel by Jack Kerouac, whose joint book with William S. Burroughs I for 'Howl' was reviewed. The famous book "On The Road" by Kerouac is filmed 2011th Hopefully more exciting than the film version made in 1997 by Stephen Kay, who obviously adored the character Cassady, but produces a horrible desolate film, has also a bit bland and gloomy time. Even Keanu Reeves, as scrapped older friend of Neal, who wants to dust off his underage girlfriend, can not save the movie.

William S. Burroughs again is the main character next film "Naked Lunch". My story goes like this: Only four times in the past I had tried to watch this movie, and I always fell asleep. Why try a fifth time? Because I for Such a lot of time over the last few days because I was sick in bed. Reading is not, television has ...
Well, but why the fifth time: For the first few times were always blame the circumstances, stoned night film number 4 is sooooo not survive the night the video easily. Even now the fifth time I actually fell asleep, the virus was to blame. This is the movie does not get bored. Rather mysterious. We do not know what happened, what is a hallucination, which is not what one has to interpret how. But what is in the film by David Cronenberg from the year 1991? Quite simply put: The exterminator Bill Lee finds one day that his wife be as insecticide sprays, as if it was heroin. It makes terrible hallucinations. One day she persuaded him to try it too ... To again be free from this addiction, he is taking medication, an antidote to this situation but when he returns home, he caught his wife Joan and his friend Frank in the act. Apparently, he calmly tells her it was time to tell, and she does a glass on his head, he would shoot away with his gun. But unfortunately this goes wrong. He kills them with the shot, because they meet at the end. He must flee. And indeed in the "Interzone" ... And now it is really weird, he hallucinates of agents: terribly nasty beetles which are transformed into typewriters and again back and talk to him ... A masterpiece by David Cronenberg, a brilliant director, even though I'm more than once to receive him. The interesting thing is that Cronenberg films not about the novel Naked Lunch one to one, but includes the biography of William S. Burroughs with, and used as a story of him as a framework for action ("Exterminator ")... Interesting!
