Line 34:
* A [[Wacky Wayside Tribe|short diversion]] in the original [[Hairspray]] has the kids ducking into a pair of beatniks' apartment / studio briefly with much trepidation. At the suggestion "lets get naked and smoke," they decide to leave.
* Sam's grandmother from ''[[Danny Phantom]]'' was one in her youth, therefore being more accommodating to Sam's Eco-Goth ways than her parents who are a pair of '50s-esque [[Stepford Smiler|Stepford Smilers]].
* Lars, the spot-obsessed, [[What the Hell Is That Accent?|German-esque]] artist that Cruella hooks up with in ''[[One Hundred and One101 Dalmatians (Disney)|101 Dalmatians 2: Patch's London Adventure]]'', was initially a stereotypical, eccentric beatnik, until near the end of the film when we find out he's capable of being a hyperactive animal-lover.
* ''A Bucket of Blood'' is a horror comedy by Roger Corman that wasn't as successful as ''Little Shop of Horrors,'' but it's a great beatnik movie, made in 1959, with the beatnik setting unselfconscious and authentic, since it's the present day.
* ''Suzuki Beane,'' a book really intended for an adult readership, but formatted like a children's book, is by Sandra Scoppettone, with illustrations by Louise Fitzhugh, and is the first-person story of the Greenwich Village life of the small daughter of two beatniks. It's a subtle parody of ''Eloise,'' but works as a stand-alone piece, and before the live-action ''Eloise'' film a few years ago, was probably better known.
