Howl (2010) is a genre-bending biopic of famed beat poet Allen Ginsberg, portrayed by James Franco.[2] The film, written and directed by Rob Epstein and Jeffrey Friedman, is structured around the 1957 obscenity trial, launched after the publication of Ginsberg's Howl and Other Poems, which became a landmark case establishing a key legal precedent guaranteeing First Amendment rights for other controversial literary works. The film was scheduled to compete for the Golden Bear at the 60th Berlin International Film Festival[3] and to be the Closing Night film at the Frameline Film Festival on June 27, 2010.
