Self
1968년 미국 ABC에서 방영될 당시 선풍적인 눈길을 끌었던 민주당 지지자인 대표적인 정치논객이자 극작가인 고어 비달과 그의 보수적 맞수인 ‘내셔널 리뷰’의 발행인인 윌리암 F. 버클리 주니어 사이의 토론을 다룬다. 영화는 TV정치토론의 새로운 역사를 기술한 두 거장의 논쟁을 통해서 68년 미국 정치와 신에 대한 의미와 근원, 그리고 성혁명에 대한 그들의 적대적인 의견충돌과 함께 풍자적이면서도 감동적인 비하인드 스토리를 볼 수 있다.

New York in the Fifties
Himself
New York in the Fifties is the story of a unique time and place, when New York was the hotbed of new artistic expressions, free love, drinking, hot jazz, and radical politics. The film combines stunning archival footage of New York with interviews and footage of icons of the day-Kerouac, Ginsberg, Baldwin, Mailer, Basie, etc. Offering modern day perspective and reminiscences are writers, actors, and artists such as Joan Didion, Robert Redford, Nat Hentoff, Gay and Nan Talese, John Gregory Dunne, William F. Buckley, and Calvin Trillin-all part of the rich cultural and artistic scene of the time. Based on the best-selling book by Dan Wakefield, the film also traces Wakefield's restless rebellion in conformist Indianapolis, and his escape to New York with dreams of writin ga novel, falling in love, meeting like-minded souls and questioning the meaning of life.
