Ron Silliman scooped this the other day, but but we can’t help help. Newly surfaced footage of Frank O’Hara from a film by Richard Moore: USA: Poetry (1966). Got 15 minutes? Sure ya do. As noted in the video, O’Hara died a few weeks after this film was completed. “Suds in the lake / suds in my heart.”
