Beatdom #14 is the movie issue, and it's our biggest one ever. We have interviews with the filmmakers behind some of the best Beat movies, as well as reviews, essays, short stories, artwork, and poetry inspired by movies.

In this issue, David S. Wills takes a look at the first Beat flick, Pull My Daisy, while Nick Meador reviews the latest, Big Sur. Neil Reddy asks why Hollywood hasn't yet gotten Beat-inspired movies right, while Michelle Rudolf contends that they did with Howl (2010). Naturally, we took a look at the recent adaptation of Jack Kerouac's On the Road, with GK Stritch lamenting that Marlon Brando never took the opportunity to play Dean Moriarty. We also have a meta-review of the reviews of Beat movies and a lot of investigation into William S. Burroughs' interest in the movies, as well as their interest in him.
