Pull My Daisy (Signed)

Descripción

Signed by the following people who appeared in or were involved with the production of the film in1959 Pull My Daisy: Robert Frank, Allen Ginsberg, David Amram (Music), John Cohen (the still photographer for the film), Larry Rivers and Alfred Leslie. Pull My Daisy is a 1959 short film that typifies the Beat Generation. Directed by Robert Frank and Alfred Leslie, Daisy was adapted by Jack Kerouac from the third act of a stage play he never finished entitled Beat Generation. Kerouac also provided improvised narration. It starred Allen Ginsberg, Gregory Corso, Larry Rivers, Peter Orlovsky, David Amram, Richard Bellamy, Alice Neel, Sally Gross and Pablo, Frank's then-infant son. Based on an incident in the life of Neal Cassady and his wife Carolyn, Pull My Daisy tells the story of a railway brakeman whose painter wife invites a respectable bishop over for dinner. However, the brakeman's bohemian friends crash the party, with comic results. Pull My Daisy was praised for years as an improvisational masterpiece, until Leslie revealed in 1968 that the film was actually carefully planned, rehearsed, and directed by him and Frank. The book is fairly scarce because many copies were destroyed in a fire at Alfred Leslie's studio. An excellent near fine copy. Front cover is lightly rubbed. N° de ref. del artículo 004879
