Pain and sincerity "Howl"

The film is based on the fierce court debate of whether Ginsburg's "Howl" is obscenity. In the recitation of his long poem, the charm of "Howl" shines brightly.
If you're interested in Ginsburg, you must watch this movie, otherwise you won't really understand "Beat Generation."
If you hate Ginsberg, you should watch this movie too. Because you will be moved by Ginsberg's sincerity and pain.
The power and charm of Howl cannot be conveyed by any textbook, literary review, or Chinese translation.
Whether you're a classicist or a postmodernist, this is a must-see for anyone who loves literature.
