Coming soon to a theater near you: Kerouac’s Beat Generation classic, at long last.
Allen Ginsberg, who wanted to see this film made for decades, would be smiling tonight.
On the road – Official trailer – (HD 1080p) by MK2diffusion
And some of the dreamy soundtrack thanks to Johann in comments:
I’ve been waiting for this “official” trailer to come out.
I’m not sure whether I’m more excited for this to come out or The Hobbit. (Yes, I’m that kind of girl). Take one of my all-time favorite books, add a bunch of indie fave actors, Motorcycle Diaries director Walter Salles, Francis Ford Coppola, fab soundtrack and and and and and and…
Ohhhhhh yesssssssssssssss!
{I’m a little bit excited about this one.}

More On the Road.
Incorrect source, offensive, or found a typo? Or do you want to write for Elephant?
Kate Bartolotta is the strongest girl in the world. She is the love child of a pirate and a roller derby queen. She hails from the second star to the right. She doesn't know how to behave with all the apples and ibexes. She doesn't suffer from her eight million freckles, she loves them! She drinks her lemonade right from the jug. Like a rolling stone, Kate gathers no moss. Kate loves kale, being barefoot, Dr. Seuss, singing too loudly, gallivanting, palindromes, blackberries, Elvis Presley, magic tricks and (of course) elephants. She has been charged with (and found guilty of) overusing the exclamation point! When she's not writing, you can find her practicing yoga, running in the woods, playing with her kids, devouring a book, planting dandelions, changing the world and doing her dishes. Kate does not play the accordion. She is on her way to becoming a fabulous massage therapist, a mediocre writer and a compassionate friend to all. This year Kate aspires to finally give up on learning to knit and will instead spend that time writing for elephant journal.
