Oh boy, another documentary about celebrities talking about a celebrity

So you've seen it?

"This 'documentary' is bullsh!t with a snazzy poster."

I wouldn't say that at all. I think Yony Leyser did a fine job, managing to simultaneously convey Burroughs's humanity and essential strangeness. The only bone I have to pick is with Genesis P-Orridge's characterization of William Burroughs Jr.'s writing as solely an approval-seeking exercise. I don't believe P-Orridge was being malicious, and Burroughs Jr. certainly did crave his father's love and acceptance, but as a writer he had plenty to say--and he said it in his own voice. John Waters wasn't just being nice when he said that Billy's books are great in their own right; he was absolutely correct.

Oh boy, another thread about a documentary from a whiner.
I play cards with J.D. Shelnut, chief of PO-lice! So kiss my ass, you old bastard!
