Burroughs: The Movie
United States | 1983 | Howard Brookner
Long feared lost but recently rediscovered and digitally restored, this definitive screen biography of William S. Burroughs (Naked Lunch) began life as an NYU thesis film (Jim Jarmusch did the sound) but became a critical and art house hit around the world. Burroughs, who died in 1997, participated fully in the project, and the movie features interviews with Allen Ginsberg, Patti Smith, Terry Southern, and others.
Cleveland revival premiere. Blu-ray. 86 min.
