Jack Kerouac's seminal pseudo-autobiography finally heads to the big screen thanks to director Walter Salles, Jr. (Motorcycle Diaries) and producer Francis Ford Coppola. The tale is semi-based on the author's trips across America, with fiction intertwining with reported real events and people met along the way. The starring cast includes Kristen Stewart, Sam Riley, and Kirsten Dunst. Jose Rivera provides the adaptation.
