Obscene2.jpgHey, Karina Longworth, I'm an avid reader of Spout blog and was just looking up your email address to ask your opinion of the 2007 Real to Reel line-up, when I saw that you beat me to it. Karina wrote a thoughtful posting about Doc Blog, including this comment:

No one?s asked me what I think, so of course I?m going to chime in anyway: the film on the Real to Reel program that I?m most looking forward to is probably Obscene, Neil Ortenberg and Daniel O?Connor?s portrait of publisher Barney Rosset, who fought obscenity trials over works like Tropic of Cancer and I Am Curious ? Yellow.

Excellent choice. Here's a frame grab from the film of Rosset with Samuel Beckett.
