Pull My Daisy
Is Holy Holy?
Directed by Robert Frank, Alfred Leslie
A playful, improvisational comedy about Beat Generation bohemians clashing with bourgeois respectability, told with affectionate irreverence and Kerouac's wry narration.
Based on an incident in the life of Beat icon Neal Cassady and his wife, the painter Carolyn, the film tells the story of a railway brakeman whose wife invites a respected bishop over for dinner. However, the brakeman's Bohemian friends crash the party, with comic results. Pull My Daisy is a film that typifies the Beat Generation. Directed by Robert Frank and Alfred Leslie, Daisy was adapted by Jack Kerouac from the third act of his play, Beat Generation; Kerouac also provided improvised narration.
