Controversial.  Confrontational.  Complicated.  Despite his gentlemanly appearance, St. Louis's William S. Burroughs was nothing if not subversive.  His writing crossed boundaries and exposed taboo subjects, flying in the face of the status quo.  On the 15-year anniversary of his death, join us for William S. Burroughs: A Man Within, a look at the simultaneously brilliant and troubled world of one of our greatest authors.  This film contains language and content that is not suitable for all audiences.  (Running time: 87 minutes)
