Description
In this engaging 1989 documentary, Maria Beatty explores the insights and influences of the American Beat poets. The film conveys their consciousness and sensibility through candid interviews with William Burroughs, Allen Ginsberg, and Diane di Prima, among others. Designed as a tribute to the poets and to their spirit of artistic freedom, Gang of Souls also weaves in additional commentary from contemporary musicians, poets and writers such as Marianne Faithfull, Richard Hell, Lydia Lunch, and Henry Rollins. Capturing the magic of the Beat generation and its continuing legacy, the film brilliantly expands on how the poets reached new levels of creativity and inspired unprecedented social change.
