I get upset when people confuse the beats with the hippies. And I think that Henri Cru (Remi Boncoeur) is there

Wonderful historical footage, good to see this clip is still around. Despite the silent one can see their personalities come through.

Thanks for posting this it was great to see some of the beat generation. Their poetry inspires me to keep writing and I feel their spirit every time I visit NYC . Tom was right...it's their humanity that shines through.
Kind regards, Peter

Wow Mary Frank is beautiful even though she doesn't have a Madison Avenue face.

And Jack "rocking" the baby. Such a tender scene. The Beats just radiated humanity and they always made me feel more human.

Stunning footage.
