So, 'William S. Burroughs: Commissioner of Sewers' is this fascinating hour-long dive into Burroughs himself, just him talking. The film's got this raw, almost intimate vibe that really captures his perspective on American culture and art. The pacing is laid-back, letting Burroughs meander through his thoughts, which can be both enlightening and a bit disjointed, reflecting his own style. You get a sense of the man behind the words – his sharp critiques on morals, and how he views the world. There's no flashy editing or fancy visuals, just Burroughs's voice and ideas, which is what makes it distinctive. It’s like having a conversation with him, and that’s where its real power lies.
Features an in-depth interview format.Focuses on Burroughs's perspective rather than typical documentary structure.No dramatizations or reenactments; it's all about the dialogue.
