The theatrical adaptation of Jack Kerouac's
great American novel. Directed by Walter Salles of
The Motorcycle Diaries fame. Hopefully it'll live up to the novel. It has Kristen Stewart in it, but she was decent in the
The Runaways, so I won't hold
Twilight against her. Hell, maybe even the Beat and Beatnik culture will become hot again because of her involvement. Soon enough striped shirts, turtlenecks, and bongos will be in the front window of your local Hot Topic.
