In the late 80s early 90s I was a teenager in seattle, I discovered the beats and would seek them out at poetry readings and met a lot of them to include ginsberg.
What was Ginsberg like?
@@bloke1348 Very sleazy and not very talented.
There's just something about this beautiful film that forever speaks to me. It never ceases to wake up my heart, mind, and wild & free spirit.
Glad for you to say that made me Feel good as i too.have always get great openminded.Life.that sometimes is i tend to forget about..!"You wake up love in me"..❤"Beside You'.Iggy Pop.American Ceaser.lp.😊p in pacific Rim nz.
As a child of the 60,s, I've always known when the change away from conformity began.
It began with the beat,s
This documents the road trip that led to my generation.
What a great film.
Thanks for this ⚡
Yeah counter culture the fascists would not approve certainly.
@@AnnaLVajda
I can't believe how many fascists came out of the baby boomer generation. It saddens me.
The hippie , back to the garden, ideology was really the minority that the media was obsessed with.
Glad I stayed on the bus.
@@AnnaLVajda Who are the fascists in your revolting society? 'The Squares'? You know that after about 20 years of being an untuned drop-out chemical junky rebel. A littlt bit of law and square conventional order may be the very thing you see as your only salvation. The only way to have a little sanity.
From an astrological standpoint 1966 was the crux point -- Uranus/ Pluto conjunction at 18' Virgo....later in 1993 --beginning of Tech Revolution in Silicon valley with Internet Invented Uranus/Neptune at 18' Capricorn ♑
@@idiotwind2248Plenty of those 60's hippies later became fascists as well 😂
Thanks for uploading this.
Maybe my favorite doc if not film.
Why?
@@NobodyCaresALot It pulls you in with the audio and visual flow, and it talks about Truth.
The whole counterculture of the 1960s - psychedelia, hippiedom, New Age living, rock festivals, etc... - essentially sprung from the non-conforming prose and poetry of these free-thinkers. And yet, if you grabbed any rando off the streets of a cosmopolitan American city like New York or San Francisco, they likely would be hard-pressed to name one of the Beats or place the significance of "Howl," "Dharma Bums," or "A Naked Lunch." The names and oeuvre of these American literary innovators should be celebrated in school alongside Dickinson, Poe, London, Twain, Emerson, and Whitman!
I'm Diggin This ... I Love The Beats ...
Thanks.
I have the dvd. Around my second year in college I met this Chicago kid. Dope sick kinda. U of Montana Missoula Mt Aber Hall It was fun times Mike
I felt a brief moment of guilt changing the 'likes' to 667...
Problem with the 'Lost and Dammed'' is that if you find them they still want to be 'Lost and Dammed'.
Does anyone know if there’s a hd version
Caleb Carr just passed away; He claims his father Lucien, an original beat, was a psychopath who used to slap him around and brutalize him.
These people terrified the Military/Industrial Establishment.
Cold War Warriors who still were still high on murder and by their Wars and still are.The Beat Poets and Authors inspired my generation in the early 70’s to write and think,actually think.
Stop it. If they terrified those people they would have been eliminated.
Ginsburg was, I think, the highest paid poet of the twentieth century. Do you know what he charged to speak at universities throughout his life? Alot.
You weren't taught to "think" anything.
You're a putz.
They didn't terrify anyone. The Beat Generation was a short lived fad that was over by 1960. Their only lasting influence was through the hippies and the 60's generation, and that crowd repudiated the sexism and racism of the Beats.
oh god... how did i get here!!!?? HELP!!!
Who's the guy talking "you're us" @1:24:50
Who's he?
Does anybody know who he is?
Johnny Depp I think...
Michael McClure
Like old-time low-downs
Allen Ginsberg, proud member of NAMBLA.
I'm literally at 1:20
Wow! What did you do in the following years after the documentary? How have you been?
The Beats were a huge influence on my life, particularly the writings of Jack Kerouac. I've admired Ginsberg, Burroughs, Corso, for their fearlessness in expressing themselves. But do you know of the North American Man-Boy Love Association? It supports sexual relationships between under-aged boys and men. Ginsberg was a supporter/member of this organization. This is my condemnation of any supporter of pederasty.
The only glaring flaw is using 'Sympathy for the Devil' over Bill, Joan and the Ugly Spirit. I understand what they were getting at, but may I ask what Billiam had to drink when that shot was fired? It's an ugly gateway most have had some sympathy for,. Just not with the Joan hangover.
There are ugly gateways other than drink though.
( I'd like to teach the world to Plug , , )
I know dan
He too was a great poet... but heroin had destroyed him
It's hard to admire men that you couldn't trust alone with your son
You mean like the "Boy Scout Leaders"....
Film quality is bad.
I used to like the beats but not anymore. I don’t like Ginsberg. Annoying. Burroughs was kind of despicable, killed his wife and got away with it. Kerouac committed suicide by drinking himself to death on purpose. Exess, drugs into dissipation madness and death. Death magick. One could have better heros. The Beats (defeated) Taught people how to be zeros. If I had to do it over I would have read more history earlier. Herodotus, Xenophon. And Philosophy. Plato’s Laws. Descartes. Science: Newton. Look at the results of the counter culture. Yes we gained festivals, music, drugs, overdoses, loss of conscience and morals and good values too. The 27 club?
Without the beats there are no hippies. Without the hippies there is no punk. They are the root of the counter culture. And they could write. Hero worship is certainly the wrong approach to them as they are flawed characters but without them the world would be a lot less vibrant today.
@@RezValla I really don’t care. I’ll take classical real artists over romanticized crappy ones.
Well everyone grows up, nevertheless they produced some good moments
It’s sad the youth of these days are into being intelectuales or literature
What are you talking about dude? The youth of today are really far from being real intelectuals, technology has made them lazy, just because they can read a wikipedia page doesn't mean they are intellectuals, while the beats and generations past really did live and breathe their philosophy and applied to their lives, not just in social media
