basquiat isn't great for sure but it has a pretty great soundtrack and it works as a smarter (maybe) and more fun midnight in paris, it's pleasures are similar - o man there's rene ricard! and there's mary boone! and uh there's julian schnabel!

Warhol and Basquiat shopping for caviar is my favorite scene.

I heard Cale's version of "Hallelujah" and PiL's "Public Image" for the first time thanks to its soundtrack, which was a cognoscenti-type purchase in the late nineties.

He poured his heart out along side Mos Def in Topdog/Underdog. One of my most memorable theater experiences.

Ethan Hawke's Hamlet is pretty good. Sam Shepard! Bill Murray!
Wright is BARELY in it though.

well he is the gravedigger. is bill murray polonius? not sure i can picture him in any other role. i played polonius and claudius in high school (in tom stoppard's 15 minute hamlet).

Yeah Bill is Polonius. They really did gut the graveyard scene. And Casey Affleck is Fortinbras and he appears only in a PICTURE ON A WALL haha.
