#OTR In "New Zealand International Film Festival" (movies based on books)

ON THE ROAD
2012 | France/Brazil | Director: Walter Salles | 137 Minutes

Kristen Stewart and Garret Hedlund are the stand-outs in Walter Salles’ faithful account of the proto-60s youth liberation classic, straight from Competition at Cannes. “Jack Kerouac’s On the Road has been heralded for decades: an important novel, a cultural signifier, a sociological landmark, a cracking good read. It’s also been considered ‘unfilmable’ – but now Walter Salles brings the novel to the screen. On the Road is scenic and episodic, full of youth’s passion but with a shade of the future yet to come dimming the brightness of its vision, as a charismatic young man travels with another young man, saying little but watching everything along the way.”— James Rocchi, The Playlist
