Gore Vidal: The United States of Amnesia

Picture
Picture

“Highly entertaining...a fine memorial to one of 20th-century America’s most brilliant, 
original — and cranky — thinkers” 
- Variety


“Entertaining....a thorough, skillfully assembled chronology” 
- The New York Times


“The cinematography is exquisite....everything is gloriously vivid, and the archival footage blends seamlessly into the meat of the film.” 
- ifc.com

GENRE: Documentary, Politics, Art, History

SYNOPSIS:
Gore Vidal, the blustery and the brilliant, never shied away from slinging his stinging opinions about government, his contemporaries and the American people in general, conversely eliciting cheers and jeers. Now, less than a year after his death, Gore Vidal: The United States of Amnesia brings the lionhearted man back to the screen. Anchored by intimate, one-on-one interviews with the man himself, Nicholas Wrathall’s documentary is a fascinating and wholly entertaining tribute to the iconic Vidal, diving into his years on the page, the screen and the scene. With commentary by those who knew him best, including filmmaker/nephew Burr Steers and the late Christopher Hitchens, plus loads of footage from his legendary on-air career, Wrathall reminds us why Vidal will forever stand as one of the most dazzling and fearless critics of our time.
