Basquiat

Basquiat I saw Basquiat the movie, and it wasn’t what I expected. Although, I am not sure what exactly I expected. Before watching this movie, I had no knowledge of John-Michel Basquiat, except for the slides that were shown in art appreciation of his work. I was quite confused by his economic status, did he have money and pretend to be poor' Or was he actually poor because he didn’t get along with his wealthy parents' He was sleeping in a box in the beginning and then he was staying at his friends house, then he had his own place, then he lived with his girlfriend and then someone said something about his parents having money, I was very confused by all of this. Also, I didn’t know that Andy Worhol was whacked, but I guess all creative people have to be at least a little crazy, that’s not a bad thing. David Bowie was very endearing as Worhol, I really liked the way he played it. Another thing that surprised me is that people were smoking in buildings, I wasn’t really around back when that was aloud so it was kind of surreal basquiat, movie, really, basquiat, seemed, don’t, andy, people, out, didn’t, thing, that’s, art, worhol, very, talking, surfer, rene, liked, kind, before, because, bad, wasn’t, understand, think, started, something, scenes, scene, reason, quite, over, once, made, know
