This episode is a recording of the inaugural meeting of the Kerouac Project of Orlando's Book Club. Matt Peters and I discuss William S. Burroughs's debut novel, Junky, and its place in the first quartet of his transformative works. The setting for this conversation is the place where Jack Kerouac lived when On the Road came out, where he lived when writing the first draft of The Dharma Bums.

Cette semaine, pas de cinéma, nouvelle exploration de l'univers d'un écrivain par son Verbe et la musique, c'est la mixtake numéro 53 de la maison de la rédaction, spéciale William Burroughs.L'écrivain né de la fusion des esprits et de la pensée de la Beat Generation était un poète-machine, le cerveau dérivant dans l'Interzone, narrateur des mondes spéculatifs, explorateur des formes et inventeur d'une nouvelle littérature, qui pense, agit et déchire les univers visibles pour, non révéler, mais faire advenir l'invisible.Il s'appelait William Seward Burroughs, humble praticien du métier de scribe – Sergent Major de l'Escadron Shakespeare pendant la guerre dont personne ne sait rien sauf ceux qui y ont participé, quand toute la cabine à chiottes était sur le point de sauter. (12 avril 1997 – Ultimes Paroles)Cette mixtake a été orchestrée par El Comandante, avec l'indispensable savante contribution de Friedrich Marlenstahl, membre de la branche Service Action du Politburo du Front Gauche de l'Art.01 Prégénérique / William's Welcome (Dead City Radio)02 Extrait / Burroughs: The Movie (Howard Brookner)03 Marianne Faithfull & Master Musicians of Joujouka / My Only Friend04 WSB / Spare Ass Annie05 WSB & Gus Van Sant / Word Is Virus06 Extrait / Drugstore Cowboy07 Brion Gysin, Frederic Cousseau, Yann Le Ker, Ramuntcho Matta / Junk08 BFY / Burroughs Called The Law09 Dave Ball, Genisis P.

Par contre, si vous écrivez sans y croire, vous ne produirez que de la merde. Le métier a beaucoup d'inconvénients ? Bien sûr, vous pouvez sortir d'une villa aux Bahamas en chevauchant un requin blanc ou vous pouvez passer vingt ans à écrire Le Grand Livre que personne ne pourra lire. James Joyce a écrit quelques unes des meilleures pages de prose en littérature - Les Morts, Les Gens de Dublin - mais pouvait-il en rester là et se cantonner à des histoires délicieuses à propos des Catholiques irlandais malheureux ? Si ça avait été le cas, le monde l'aurait récompensé en lui accordant le prix Nobel. Maintenant personne n'a jamais dit à un docteur : "Ecoute, toubib, tes opérations du cul sont vraiment extra, beaucoup de tantouzes te sont reconnaissantes de pouvoir continuer à se faire enculer mais faudrait qu'tu trouves quelque chose de nouveau" -. Naturellement, il n'a pas à trouver quelque chose. C'est toujours le même bon vieux cul. Mais un écrivain doit produire du neuf, ou il doit standardiser son produit - l'un ou l'autre. Ainsi je pourrais standardiser le produit Peter Pan-Pédé-Garçon Sauvage, et en sortir un tous les ans comme la série des Tarzan ; ou bien je pourrais écrire un Finnegans Wake. Aussi, j'ai cette idée au sujet d'un privé et des Cités de la nuit rouge. Quien sabe ?" (WSB "Le temps des assassins")

When was the last time you pushed yourself to do something that made you uncomfortable at work - whether volunteering to learn a task outside of your usual job duties, offering to take on a new project, or making friends with another employee? Moving outside of your comfort zone may feel awkward or stressful at first, but it is also the best way to grow! And in order to become a mature person – personally, professionally, and spiritually – we absolutely MUST grow! William S. Burroughs once said, “When you stop growing, you start dying.” So, ask yourself, is your work ethic alive and growing? How about your family life? How about your spiritual life? This week, challenge yourself to find one thing that you can do to push yourself outside of your comfort zone and into your growth zone!

Sometimes, you can see a stickup coming a mile off. Other times, they come in the dressing of a movie with lots of awards and credibility. But Maff might've just played a blinder here in The Year of the Stichup. Naked Lunch (1991) was a challenging and experimental adaptation of William S. Burroughs' novel, helmed by Canadian director David Cronenberg. The film's production was marked by its complex narrative and the integration of surreal, often disturbing imagery, which reflected Burroughs' unorthodox storytelling style. Cronenberg, known for his work in body horror, worked closely with the cast, including Peter Weller, who portrayed the lead role of William Lee, to create a psychological and disorienting atmosphere. Filming took place in various locations, including Toronto, where the filmmakers utilized practical effects and innovative set designs to create the film's nightmarish world. The production team also employed a mixture of animation and special effects to bring Burroughs' hallucinatory visions to life, making Naked Lunch a visually striking, albeit polarizing, adaptation of the cult novel.If you enjoy the show we have a Patreon, so become a supporter.⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠www.patreon.com/thevhsstrikesback⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Trailer Guy Plot SummaryIn a world where reality is blurred and paranoia runs deep, Naked Lunch follows William Lee, a writer who becomes entangled in a web of drugs, conspiracy, and bizarre creatures. As he tries to escape his hallucinatory nightmare, Lee finds himself in the midst of a deadly game involving corrupt agents, mysterious organizations, and a sinister plot to control the world. With his mind unraveling, Lee must navigate a twisted labyrinth of absurdity and horror, where nothing is what it seems, and the lines between fantasy and reality are dangerously thin. Prepare for a journey into madness that will leave you questioning what's real and what's not.⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠thevhsstrikesback@gmail.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://linktr.ee/vhsstrikesback⁠

William S. Burroughs was a literary icon whose novel Naked Lunch, one of the signature works of the Beat Generation, was banned and went on trial for obscenity. His writing inspired generations of musicians, from the Rolling Stones and Patti Smith to Nirvana and Sonic Youth. But long before all that, in 1951, when he was an unknown and mostly failed writer, William S. Burroughs made the most fateful decision of his life when he pointed a gun at a highball glass balanced on top of his wife's head…and pulled the trigger.

In the twentieth episode of Season 11: The Son of Cult Flicks, Kyle is joined for a one-on-one conversation with filmmaker Daniel Lopez to discuss David Cronenberg's mutation of adaptation and biography of William S. Burroughs famously unadaptable beat generation novel as he weaves a surreal impression about the writing process as madness, the id conjuring psychic horrors, and sexual repression breeding ambivalence in the delirious and non-sensical Naked Lunch (1991).

CW: This episode discusses cinematic sexual violence.Violet Lucca, the author of the new monograph David Cronenberg: Clinical Trials, returns to the podcast from Brooklyn to discuss the book and his controversial 1991 adaptation of William S. Burroughs' Naked Lunch starring Peter Weller and Judy Davis, filmed in Toronto standing in for 50s New York and Morocco, recreated by Cronenberg's longtime production designer Carol Spier in a former General Electric plant in Toronto's west end.We discuss Cronenberg's lifelong connection to Canadian cinema and the city of Toronto with digressions on Videodrome, The Dead Zone and The Fly before grappling with Naked Lunch, which is less of a literal film version of the novel and more a meditation about the life of Burroughs and what it is to be an artist in general. We also discuss Cronenberg's cinematic explorations of paranoia and conspiracy theories, and his relationship to the queer artistic community in Canada reflected across his career, even if he's always identified himself as a heterosexual man.And we (briefly) contrast Naked Lunch with the new Burroughs cinematic adaptation, Luca Guadagnino's Queer starring Daniel Craig, which we feel misses the boat on how to adapt Burroughs for the screen.Over 30% of all Junk Filter episodes are only available to patrons of the podcast.

This week, Roy Scheider plays a small but pivotal supporting role in David Cronenberg's cult classic, NAKED LUNCH! Adapted from the novel by William S. Burroughs, Scheider stars alongside Peter Weller, Judy Davis, Ian Holm, and more in what may be the strangest and one of the last great movie of his career.

Legendary artist and pioneering music producer Luc Van Acker might have made music history, he doesn't do nostalgia. With a career spanning over four decades, he has instinctively moved between solo projects; bands like Revolting Cocks, Ministry, Front 242, Arbeid Adelt! & many more and offered up cult collabs and genre-bending productions. His fearlessly fun, self-proclaimed 'insane', and experimental M.O. has navigated industry politics and backroom machinations for the longest time, yet he remains ahead of the wave, forever optimistically searching for new sounds.  On this episode, Luc and Dominique retrace his journey—from self-producing his first solo record in his bedroom to in-person straight-talk with William S. Burroughs and birthing industrial music together with Richard 23, Al Jourgensen and Wax Trax! Records.  He shares how experimenting with the first samplers put Belgian producers on the global map and why names like Trent Reznor from Nine Inch Nails and Slipknot's Joey Jordison cite him as an inspiration. Luc also tells stories of how he got through his darkest days and what led him to his current 'Twin Peaks' -ish happy place. But not before he divulges how he roped himself into his first gig with Shriekback, what 80's Chicago was like and, of course, the inception of Revolting Cocks.

Two men named Gary helped make Toronto cool in the 1970s, at a time when this city most definitely was not. They had no rule book. They didn't have a lot of money. But they had interests and ideas -- a lot of them crazy -- and they had the nerve to make things happen. First came movie theatres. Then came concert bookings. And what a roster of acts they introduced to the city... The Ramones, The Police, The Smiths, The Go-Gos and The B-52s to name a few. And now one of the Garys... Gary Topp... is the subject of a new book called He Hijacked My Brain, about his often wild career as a cultural curator. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

This week we cover David Cronenberg's adaptation of the William S Burroughs novel - NAKED LUNCH. Blank-faced bug killer Bill Lee (Peter Weller) and his dead-eyed wife, Joan (Judy Davis), like to get high on Bill's pest poisons while lounging with Beat poet pals. After meeting the devilish Dr. Benway (Roy Scheider), Bill gets a drug made from a centipede. Upon indulging, he accidentally kills Joan, takes orders from his typewriter-turned-cockroach, ends up in a constantly mutating Mediterranean city and learns that his hip friends have published his work -- which he doesn't remember writing.Hear our take on the film and the review of SISKEL AND EBERT!Be sure to subscribe on your favorite pod platform and our YOUTUBE channel!Visit thecultworthy.comVisit https://www.themoviewire.comVideo: https://www.youtube.com/@back2thebalcony

Kelsi and Trey dive deep into Luca Guadagnino's Queer, starring Daniel Craig and Drew Starkey. This hypnotic, surreal adaptation of William S. Burroughs' unfinished novel explores longing, loneliness, and identity through bold visual storytelling and complex characters. Set in a dreamlike 1950s Mexico City, the film blends stunning performances, immersive design, and a hallucinatory narrative to examine the tension between desire and self-destruction.

There are things about your kids you can't take credit for, and others you can. Unfortunately for my kids, I think I can take credit for that one.The holidays are a good excuse to treat the people you love. And it is so satisfying to give someone a good, special gift. Doesn't have to be big, just thoughtful. But sometimes it take a lot of thought! Combine that with feeling like money's tighter than you'd like, and that becomes just one of a number of stressful aspects of this season of joy and celebration.This week on Inner States, we're trying to avoid Christmas. Mostly, we're going to fail.We've got five approaches to the season. A surprising fact about William S. Burroughs - you know, the Beat writer famous for the novel Naked Lunch and for his long-time addiction to heroin - is that he wrote a Christmas story. We hear about that, and how he saw the capitalist economy as being very similar to drug addiction. We find out what made both Yané Sanchez Lopez and her mom change their minds about Christmas. Jillian Blackburn brings us a family who got their most important winter holiday traditions from TV. Caroline Tatem tells us about realizing not all grandfather's dressed up and played banjo in parades around Christmastime, and about an Irish Christmas tradition of going to people's houses and putting on plays in their kitchens. Finally, Joan Hawkins, our resident William S. Burroughs scholar, reflects on gifts as a replacement for time and attention, the sense of humor that shaped Burroughs's Christmas story, and what we can learn from all of that.

Anne and Ryan discuss Luca Guadagnino's new drama QUEER starring Daniel Craig, Drew Starkey, Jason Schwartzman, and Lesley Manville. Based on the William S. Burroughs novella of the same name, QUEER follows an American writer living in 1950s Mexico City, pursuing a romance with a recently discharged Navy man. As the pair travel to South America in search of a mysterious drug, the story takes on a dreamlike aura in its depiction of longing and wanderlust. Join us for this discussion of Guadagnino's directorial follow-up to this year's Challengers, as well as diversions into James Bond, AMC theaters, Melancholia, the Babygirl trailer, Black Narcissus, Derek Jeter's gift baskets, Under the Volcano, The Agency and much, much more! QUEER is currently in theaters.

"Queer" had its world premiere at the 2024 Venice International Film Festival, where it received polarizing reviews but has continued to fascinate audiences since as it expands to more theaters from A24. Screenwriter Justin Kuritzkes, who also worked with director Luca Guadagnino earlier this year on "Challengers," was kind enough to spend some time talking with us about adapting William S. Burroughs's novel for the screen, which you can listen to below. Please be sure to check out the film, which is now playing in theaters from A24 and is up for your consideration for this year's Academy Awards in all eligible categories, including Best Actor for Daniel Craig.

The movie Queer stars Daniel Craig as you've never seen him: as a junkie prowling the streets, hooking up, shooting up and guzzling tequila. He meets a handsome young man (Drew Starkey) he longs to connect with, and they embark on a quest into the jungle in search of a drug that will unite them on a deep, spiritual level. Directed by Luca Guadagnino (Challengers, Call Me By Your Name), the film is based on a short novel by William S. Burroughs.Follow Pop Culture Happy Hour on Letterboxd at letterboxd.com/nprpopculture.Subscribe to NPR Plus at plus.npr.org or make a gift at donate.npr.org.Learn more about sponsor message choices: podcastchoices.com/adchoicesNPR Privacy Policy

We are so excited to bring you our latest bonus episode of Soundtracking, as two of our favourties Luca Guadagnino and Daniel Craig join Edith to discuss Luca's glorious new film, Queer. Based on a novella by William S Burroughs, it tells the story of Lee who, after fleeing from a drug bust in New Orleans, wanders around Mexico City';s clubs and becomes infatuated with a discharged American navy serviceman. Queer is scored by friends of the show, Trent Reznor and Atticus Ross.

As we lurch toward 2025, our podcast continues to cover the waterfront of 2024's pop culture. First up, Scott Gold joins Neal Pollack to talk about 'Dune: Prophecy.' Neal wonders, why does this Max show have to take place 10,000 years before the Dune movies. That seems like a long time. Scott says it is but a grain in sand in the vastness of the universe. How would he know that? But he's also definitely right. And the show is not boring, full of palace intrigue and creepy space witches and genuine moments of horror to go along with the incredibly expensive and vivid set design and Shakespeare-level performances. Dune: Prophecy will not be for everyone, but it's definitely Game of Thrones set in space.Decidedly not Game of Thrones in space, but almost as weird (in a different way) than Dune: Prophecy is Queer, the new William S. Burroughs adaptation from director Luca Guadagnino, who's never afraid of a challenge. Stephen Garrett joins Neal on the podcast to talk about Daniel Craig's radiant performance as a midlife seeker who desperately wants love, and also drugs. There is plenty of unrequited love in the film, and plenty of requited drugs. The really amazing part is that everyone in 1948 could just afford to kind of hang out and do whatever they wanted. This is the dream, really, and also kind of the nightmare. A brilliant adaptation of an unadaptable book.And that's all of the podcast for this week. Isn't that enough?[audio mp3="https://bookandfilmglobe.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/12/BFG-PODCAST-177-121024.mp3"][/audio]

This week Megan and Dave talk about director Luca Guadagnino's QUEER (2:28), an adaptation of William S. Burroughs 1985 novel (with a screenplay by Justin Kuritzkes). Starring Daniel Craig as William Lee (a Burroughs stand-in), this movie left both Megan and Dave a little bewildered, as there were things they liked (the shooting-up scene, the color palette), and things they didn't like (Drew Starkey's performance as Lee's love interest). Then Evan joins in for FLOW (22:38) an excellent animated film featuring a very cat-like cat and other animals as they survive a catastrophic flood. Finally there's NIGHTBITCH (39:53). Amy Adams becomes a dog (though there's more to it than that) and Scoot McNairy becomes a dope (he's played this part before). What did we think of writer-director Marielle Heller's adaptation of Rachel Yoder's novel? Over on Patreon, we talk about the Christmas horror flick BETTER WATCH OUT.

John welcomes playwright, novelist and screenwriter Justin Kuritzkes to discuss having his first two movies — Challengers and Queer — produced a single year. After charting his journey from playwright to screenwriter, we compare two drafts of Challengers to look at how the story changed during a hasty development, including crafting that iconic three-way. We also explore adapting William S. Burroughs' novel Queer, and the film's approach to showing sex on screen. In our bonus segment for premium members, Justin looks back on his time as a viral YouTube potion seller, and the value of that creative outlet early in his career.

In front of an audience at Chapman University, the British A-lister reflects on how his background in theater has helped him in film, his 15-year run as James Bond and playing, in Luca Guadagnino's new adaptation of William S. Burroughs' semi-autobiographical novella, a gay American living in 1950s Mexico City who is addicted to booze, drugs and sex. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
