Charley Rossman is playing Allen Ginsberg (Beat Poet) in the film, The Buffalo Son, premiering tonight at Laemelle Sunset 5 in Hollywood.

The Buffalo Son chronicles the adventures of Peter Apple, a teenage boy who awakes in the middle of an Arizona desert road with complete head trauma-induced amnesia regarding his past. Unable to remember any of his history, completely undocumented in databases, lacking a social security number and having no known family, the sweet, naive Peter gains relative national fame for his story and spontaneous poetry — but is eventually adopted as a prophet and “flawless judge of this World” by the strange beat poets and art fiends in his foster family’s neighborhood. Peter slowly morphs into a cocky, careless, rockstar-like hero while becoming a target of jealousy and hatred at his high school, subtly falling for one of his “follower’s” daughters, pit-falling into a world of murder and corruption and facing what could either be an onslaught of mystical happenings or a series of peculiar coincidences — constantly challenging Peter to question the roles he has been assigned. As his memory begins to return, insights change and characters morph in this colorful, funny and eerie take on the American dream.
