RAT The Anarchist's Convention



There's a great story by John Sayles (?) called The Anarchist's Convention.
About a convention of anarchists that gather but can't get anything
together and the ensuing chaos.  Very funny.

John Sayles is the director/author of RETURN OF THE SECAUCUS 7, BROTHER
FROM ANOTHER PLANET, and a bunch of great movies.
