1969ref. 141375New York: Two Faces / New Yorker Films 1969. Vintage poster for the 1969 film an experimental mix of documentary and fiction. Poster designed by Robert Frank. Director Robert Frank's first feature film in which he follows poet Peter Orlvosky and his mentally ill and mostly catatonic brother Julius as they move through the late 1960s Beat scene. When Julius wanders off he is replaced in the film by actor Joseph Chaikin. A meditation on the boundaries of reality and sanity featuring the screenwriting debut of Sam Shepard and the first feature film appearance of Christopher Walken. The film was released in a new restoration by Steidl in 2007 along with a book publication outlining the film. From the Steidl book: "Frank's feature debut was first screened in 1968 at the Venice Film Festival. Everything which had defined Frank's art up to that point turns up in this film - the look at America 'from the outside' the poetic libertinage of the Beats the marginal in a central role. It celebrates the return of the poetic essay as assemblage the affirmation of the underground as a wild cinematic analysis in the form of a collage and skillfully weaves together opposites plays counterfeits against the authentic pornography against poetry acting against being Beat cynicism against hippie romanticism monochrome against colored. The story contains bizarre twists and turns and appears to be a rather artless-film-within-a-film being shown at a rundown movie theater." 26.75 x 20.75 inches. Near Fine. In a custom frame.
