Story of Neal Cassady, the man who was a folk hero of The Beat movement in the '60s and was an inspiration for The Grateful Dead. This movie covers only the early years, before his road trips. And nothing much happens. Decent acting and filmmaking, but just not much of a story. If they were trying to show something in his character that would inspire a movement, either I didn't see it, or I don't value the movement - not sure which.
