If You Want to Know Ken Kesey, Don’t Watch This Documentary
Ken tries for years to edit this film and make it work. He couldn’t. And there’s good reason: it’s really not interesting or compelling. It’s basically one tedious home movie.

And not a good one.

For all the talk of LSD trips and hte like, these people seem pretty normal. Kesey certainly was. After teh whole magic bus thing he led a very quiet family life in Oregon and taught at the university.

This documentary is very disappointing. It doesnt capture the times or the spirit.

Watch sunshine makers instead, this is good but lacks depth
READ THIS: Quick summary: At the very beginning you may notice its made my “history” something or other. This in away sums up what to expect from this movie, its fun til about half way through and then its just dreary facts about what happened. I watched sunshine makers and think it was 100X better …just down to how it was directed and presented

I loved seeing the antics that went on with the bus but the overall feel of the movie left me feeling dry and kind of sad.

I felt sad because it didn’t really go into enough depth on any of the characters or the philosophy of their movement. It was nice to see such rare content but it didn’t go into enough depth is any one area. What i mean by this is it didn’t focus down on any body or anything. If they focused more on ken and his life and showed us who everyone was in relation to him i might have felt more of a connection with the characters and enjoyed it more.

But the worst thing about this movie is it was divorced from the messages that these pioneer’s of the 60’s propagated.. the fact that the “merry pranksters” were even too excitable and “free” to sit down and get into the complexity’s of the psychedelic philosophy with leary was something that was really lost within this movie. It didn’t successfully show the excitement and exploration that these people were engaged in… all it did is vaugely show what happened..
