This 5-minute film by Robert Frank was no doubt shot around the time Frank was working with Alfred Leslie on the Beat classic 'Pull My Daisy' featuring Jack Kerouac & Allen Ginsberg. In this short clip we see Lucien Carr & his wife Francesca & their three sons Simon, Caleb & Ethan as well as Mary Frank with her & Robert's children Pablo & Andrea. I put a live version of Dave Brubeck's 'Take Five' behind this Beat meet-&-greet at E 9th Street & 3rd Avenue because“Take Five' came out the same year, 1959, & it seems to go with the upbeat mood among all those kids & smiling Beats.
