Finally got the Movie THE BEAT ANGEL , in the mail.. Just watched the film.. Man i LOVED this movie. All Kerouac fans need to get this,.. but besides that.. This Vincent Balestri dude is an awesome actor. There is this piece that continues without stopping..and at one part, this guy is talking so fast.. for so long.. I really dont see how anyone but a Genius , could memorize such lines and keep it going ...with a Beat, and rythm.. like this Actor Genius did. Ths movie is a must buy.. for sure
