No longer content with the single image to convey his vision, Frank put his creative photography aside throughout the 1960s, and concentrated on film-making. 'I can say more in movie work and I can say it differently', he said. The stills shown in this room are taken from some of Frank's films. He made Pull My Daisy, in collaboration with Alfred Leslie, in 1959. An avant-garde story about the American beatnik lifestyle, with voice-over by Jack Kerouac, Frank's first film is perhaps his most famous.

In 1972, the Rolling Stones invited Frank to document their tour of Canada and the US. The resulting film, Cocksucker Blues, was considered too explicit, and was rejected by the band and blocked from distribution. In other films, such as Me and My Brother, 1965-68, the narrative slips between fiction and reality and often represents aspects of Frank's own life. Within the same story actors appear alongside real people, captured in documentary-style footage.
