Kathy Acker was a pro-sex feminist author whose life became inextricably blurred with her experimental fiction. On Saturday, September 12, OTHER CINEMA presents the NorCal debut of Barbara Caspar’s trenchant cine-portrait. It mixes testimonials of friends with archival photos, TV interview footage, animated adaptations of her work, and dialog with girls whom Acker inspired. Followed by: Lars Movin’s Words of Advice trails Beat writer Bill Burroughs from his European spoken-word tour back to his Manhattan Bunker, and finally to his Lawrence, KS home in his later years. Hilariously scabrous readings that capture Burroughs’ sardonic wit are intercut with in-depth interviews, and music by Patti Smith, as friends such as poet John Giorno offer new insights into the author’s creative legacy. Free pencils, Dream Machine in effect! NOTE: 8pm start-time*.
