A film by Chuck Workman
When Jack Keroauc, Allen Ginsberg and William Burroughs met at Columbia University in 1940’s, they spawned a movement, then called the Beats, that set precedents for the political, hippie and spiritual movements of the 1960’s and ’70s. This comprehensive portrait of the Beat Generation icludes interviews with virtually every surviving figure from this period.
This documentary came out in 2000. Available on DVD at Amazon
