Pull My Daisy (1959) is a short 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. It starred poets Allen Ginsberg, Peter Orlovsky and Gregory Corso, artists Larry Rivers (Milo) and Alice Neel (bishop’s mother), musician David Amram, actors Richard Bellamy (Bishop) and Delphine Seyrig (Milo’s wife), dancer[1] Sally Gross (bishop’s sister), and Pablo Frank, Robert Frank’s then-young son.
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.
This is an unreleased / underground documentary that never was meant for the public to see of the legendary Rock band “The Rolling Stones” in support of their tour in ’72. The movie/ documentary on them doing all the “Sex drugs and Rock n roll” was somehow leaked and now available for fans to see.
