from the news section:

THE LIFE AND TIMES OF ALLEN GINSBERG
Lee and Thurston both appear in a new documentary about Allen Ginsberg. According to the website: 'For 25 years, Academy Award nominated Director Jerry Aronson accumulated more than 120 hours of film on Allen Ginsberg, resulting in this comprehensive portrait of one of America's greatest poets. This deluxe 2-disc DVD set contains the Director's cut of the award-winning documentary, The Life and Times of Allen Ginsberg, that began filming in 1982 and now is complete, updated and re-mastered.'

Oh crap, David Cross died? Shit, man I didn't know thurston and the gang were all buddy-buddy with him. That's fuckin cool.

thanks, for info.
shit i think i need fucking quicktime to see that, huh?

kingcoffee · 05.26.2006, 08:00 PM

holy shit. I never realized Ginsburg looked like David Cross. I've seen many pictures of both of them before, but I just never saw it in that conext before. That's really funny! They're both hardcore liberals. And former Jews. Funny shit, man. Long live HOWL!

Did anyone else pick this up on DVD? I was so glad that they released it on DVD....I wasn't sure if I'd ever see it. I a new copy on Ebay for like 20 bucks, but some places are selling them for like 35-40. I'm not sure if it was made in limited copies or what. The doc itself is a nice chronological look at his life and there are a TON of extras/interviews from Thurston, Lee, Burroughs, Patti Smith, Yoko Ono, Stan Brakhage, Ken Kesey, Andy Warhol etc. Highly recommended for any fan of Allen or the beats.
