    I`m too old for literature...The animation rhythm of the screen is good...Fu Lanlan is also good...don is also good...It will not be so obscure in the back and become...

    After watching it for 20 minutes, it was wtf, and it continued until the end of the film. What a good subject and what a good era. It was filmed so superficially. It's not hippie, not jazz, not ginsberg, every time I read a poem, I'm...

    The more you go to the back, the more interesting it is, reading poetry aloud, weakening the gods and strengthening the ego, anesthesia and psychedelics stimulate the crazy...

    If you want to dig into Ginsberg's inner world, then you need more life content to describe, rather than a few interviews and poetry readings. If you want to interpret the historical events of the court trial, you need more social content to show it. The result is that both ends of the film are not done well, and it can only be superficial. However, the court trial in the film still has great practical significance. The poems and songs at the end are a...

    The form is not uncommon, except that it is rare to see a complete poem in an American film session, and I knew that the final song must be Bob...

    This movie is completely disappointing, but some words have some meaning. James Franco is completely gay. When I watched Pineapple Express, I thought he was a little gay. He acted well, very natural and cute ( ̄▽ ̄...

    From the movie's point of view, the plot is relatively simple, using only the lawsuit caused by the poetry collection as the main line, and narrating the cause and effect of HOWL in fragments. However, the deep meaning behind the subject matter of the film is worthy of further in-depth exploration by those who are interested. The verdict in court once again established the foundation of American freedom, and Ginsberg's self-reported candid creative attitude is also thought-provoking. Regardless...

    The color matching is quite in place and has a sense of the times. The mode of poetry, animation, and courtrooms is also performed in turn, which also balances the look and feel very well. It will not be difficult to read because the poems are too dull. It's easy to compare "Broken Tower" with this...

Howl quotes

  • Jake Ehrlich: The battle of censorship will not be finally settled by your honor's decision, but you will either add to liberal-educated thinking, or by your decision you will add fuel to the fire of ignorance. Let there be light. Let there be honesty. Let there be no running from non-existent destroyers of morals. Let there be honest understanding.

  • [first lines]

    Allen Ginsberg: "Howl" for Carl Salomon. I saw the best minds of my generation destroyed by madness, starving hysterical naked, dragging themselves through the negro streets at dawn looking for an angry fix, angel-headed hipsters burning for the ancient heavenly connection to the starry dynamo in the machinery of night...
