The images come from poets, ex-wives, ex-girlfriends, a daughter, a priest, and the incredible footage of Kerouac on the Steve Allen (1959) and William Buckley (1968) television shows."@en . . . . "This documentary charts the controversial life and times of the premier novelist of the Beat Movement. The filmmakers analyze Jack Kerouac's early years as a member of the French-Canandian community in the milltown of Lowell, Massachusetts, a brief matriculation at Columbia University and a stint in the Merchant Marines during World War II. His groundbreaking novel, On the road (1957) earned him worldwide attention, an acclaim tragically undermined by alcoholism. Biographical details are supplemented by interviews with Kerouac's literary confederates, Allen Ginsberg, Gregory Corso, Lawrence Ferlinghetti, Michael McClure, Gary Snyder and John Clellon Holmes, and by the recollections of his wife and daughter. Interwoven with the reminiscences of friends and associates are clips from The Steve Allen Show in 1959, not long after publication of On the road, and William Buckley's Firing line in 1968, a year before his death. Kerouac's readings of his work are accompanied by views of New York, San Francisco, and Lowell, Massachusetts." . . . . .
