NAKED LUNCH!!!!!!!!!

why isn't Naked lunch on this list? I was so ready to upvote this link. So ready! No William Burroughs though. I can't do it.

For those of you who would like to know more about William Burroughs and Naked Lunch...

The Book was the subject of a 1st amendment battle in the supreme court and has been banned quite a bit even though it was deemed to be Not porn by supreme court judges.

The movie has little to do with the book as it would literally be impossible to make the book into a movie. It is instead based on an amalgam of Burroughs writings and events from his personal life.

Both can be at times confusing and disturbing and hysterically funny.

Adaptation is good, but I've seen your movie notes, you're kind of hard to please.

I am kicking myself for getting so worked up over Burroughs I forgot or rail on about the lack of any Thompson!! Good save.
