Director Walter Salles (THE MOTORCYCLE DIARIES) and screenwriter Jose Rivera bring Jack Kerouac's Beat Generation bible to the big screen.

With the appropriately charismatic Sam Riley (CONTROL) playing Kerouac's alter ego Sal Paradise, and Garrett Hedlund playing his friend Dean Moriarty - based on the real-life Neal Cassady - ON THE ROAD burns with the same energy as Kerouac's original groundbreaking text. Jointly and separately the pair crisscross America pursuing an elusive freedom. Along the way they meet a cast of quirky characters, many based on Kerouac's literary contemporaries, including Viggo Mortensen as a thinly disguised William Burroughs and Tom Sturridge evoking the young Allen Ginsburg.

Beautifully photographed by INTO THE WILD's Eric Gautier, ON THE ROAD is a road movie with a noble heart as well as a throbbing pulse.
