Who's Afraid of Kathy Acker? (2007)


ph: Robert Mapplethorpe

A documentary on the author Katthy Acker.

Very informative and full of interesting material I was not quite convinced whether this film could show what makes Kathy Acker tick. One can't doubt Acker's importance and her influence on present-day culture, but still her punk aesthetics felt to me somehow dated, a thing of the past.
