      Clyde Gilmour Maclean's Magazine Evidently anxious not to bypass any possible market, M-G-M has finally paid homage to the beatniks of today's oddball humanity, in a maudlin melodrama that is almost continuously depressing. Nov 7, 2019 Full Review Dwight MacDonald Esquire Magazine The movie has neither style nor human reality. Kerouac's hallucinations are his own, but the film's are Everybody's (as Everybody is conceived of at the box office, that is Nobody). Jul 16, 2019 Full Review Read all reviews
