This loving and vibrant portrait of the one-of-a-kind artist intermixes archival footage; interviews with friends, lovers, and colleagues, including Lawrence Ferlinghetti and George Kuchar; and clips from many of Broughton’s films. Our tribute continues next week with a selection of Broughton’s poetic and subversive short films. Both programs are part of a series of local events planned to celebrate the centennial of Broughton’s birth. • (83 mins, Color, Digital, From Frisky Divinity Productions) Other Broughton events around town this month include a theatrical celebration of his poetry and art, Ecstasy for Everyone, at The San Francisco Art Institute on September 5.
