Once thought a lost film, Burroughs is a revealing portrait of the iconic American Beat writer William S. Burroughs that’s comprised of lengthy interviews with the author and such contemporaries as Allen Ginsberg and Terry Southern. Brookner began work on the film as his senior thesis project at NYU (and it features friends Jim Jarmusch and Tom DiCillo on the crew). Brookner died tragically young of AIDS at the age of 34. (86 mins., DCP).
Restored by Pinball London Ltd from a Museum of Modern Art print, released by Janus Films.
