NAKED LUNCH (1991)
























Directed by: David Cronenberg
Based on the novel by: William S. Burroughs
Starring: Peter Weller, Judy Davis, Ian Holm, Roy Scheider, Julian Sands, Monique Mercure, Nicholas Campbell, Michael Zelniker, Robert A. Silverman, Joseph Scorsiani, Peter Boretski, Yuval Daniel, John Friesen, Sean McCann

115 minutes
(R - strong language, adult themes, adult situations, some violence, bizarre eroticism, drug content)

PLOT:
Not an adaptation of beat writer William S. Burrough's novel but a mix of biography and an interpretation of his drug- induced writing processes combined with elements of his work in this paranoid fantasy about Bill Lee, a writer who accidentally shoots his wife, whose typewriter transforms into a cockroach and who becomes involved in a mysterious plot in North African port called Interzone. Wonderfully bizarre, not unlike Burrough's books.
