2010 · Film · ★ 6.6

Released in 2010, Howl is a drama film directed by Rob Epstein, running about 84 minutes. “The Obscenity Trial That Started a Revolution. The Poem That Rocked a Generation.” — that tagline sets the tone.

What it’s about. Allan Ginsbergs Vorlesung seines Gedichts "Howl" und der nachfolgende Druck des Textes erzeugte Mitte der 50er Jahre in den USA einen Skandal, der nicht nur dazu führte, dass das schmale Buch verboten wurde, sondern das auch sein Verleger angeklagt wurde, unsittliche Schriften veröffentlicht zu haben. Parallel verfolgt der Film vier Handlungsstränge - den Vortrag des Gedichtes in einem kleinen Club, die zwei Jahre später stattfindende Gerichtsverhandlung, ein Interview mit Ginsberg, in dem er seine Beweggründe erläutert und auch über seine offen gelebte Homosexualität spricht, und die animierte visuelle Umsetzung des Textes.

Who’s in it. Howl stars James Franco as Allen Ginsberg, Jon Hamm as Jake Ehrlich, Mary-Louise Parker as Gail Potter and Treat Williams as Mark Schorer, among others.
