If you’ve ever read Jack Kerouac, I encourage you to check out the documentary One Fast Move or I’m Gone. As the subtitle hints, the documentary focuses on the book Big Sur, which is deemed Kerouac’s darkest book. Because the book is basically Kerouac dealing with his demons on the page for everyone to see, the documentary gives a really intimate view of who Kerouac was, contradictions and all. Plus, it has Tom Waits in it, so it has to be good, right?
The soundtrack by Jay Farrar and Ben Gibbard is also worth checking out.
