The official trailer for Kill Your Darlings is here and it looks très dramatique. The film follows Allen Ginsberg (played by a very Brooklyn twink-y-looking Daniel Radcliffe) through his affair with Lucien Carr (Dane DeHaan) and his introduction to important Beat figures like Jack Keroauc (Jack Huston), William S. Burroughs (Ben Foster) and David Kammerer (played by Michael C. Hall with a big beard). Spoiler alert, everyone: despite how much you want to, you won't see any steamy gay kisses or sexy-sex sex scenes in this one. Instead the trailer shifts from "jazz! opium! tweed!" beat-era porn to an psychological-thriller drama with Kammerer becoming obsessed with Carr and Carr subsequently murdering him. When a trailer seems to be about two totally different films, that's never a good sign. The Beats wouldn't have abided by that sort of narrative imposition. Watch above.
