I cannot believe that they’re making a movie about Allen Ginsberg— I am so excited about it! I absolutely love the poem “Howl” (posted below), and am fascinated by the culture of the ’60s, especially after taking a history course simply called “The 1960s” my senior year at Exeter. Every generation of adolescents and young adults faces similar conflicts, but the parallels in the political and social culture that can be drawn between those in the ’60s and our generation now are undeniable. I’ll be fascinated to see this movie. I really should revisit some of the music and literature from that class— I saved most of it because I was so intrigued by it. More and more, since I’ve graduated and started examining my own life, who I am, and where I want to be, I’ve begun to relate to the culture of the ’60s. infinitebutterflies: dailycuteboy: jesseboy: Aaron Tveit & James Franco in the upcoming film, Howl. PS: Who is this Aaron Tveit character? Hmmm…
