Boom for Real: The Late Teenage Years of Jean Michel Basquiat


Boom for Real is an exciting documentary about Basquiat. It is an amazing portrait of the 1980s downtown scene. The gritty nostalgia and the explosive youthful talent were stunning. Of course there is the tragedy of his early death looming over the whole thing, but the early years of his art and his life and his friends and his influences is pretty incredible.
