Summary, Etc. |
"Fiery but feeling his years and his illness, ailing filmmaker Leonard Fife wants to tell his life story, unfiltered, before it's too late. As the director of lauded documentary exposâes, he has much to be proud of, but his avoidance of the Vietnam War draft and his past relationships harbor thorny truths. Finally choosing to reveal all about his life and career, Leonard sits for an extended filmed interview with his former student Malcolm, charging ahead with candid stories about his younger self in the fractious 1960s and beyond. At Leonard's insistence, his wife and indispensable partner, Emma, hears everything. Leonard's successes are held up against his failings--the fibs held up against the facts--and as the man in full is cleansed of the myth, Leonard must confront what is left"-- Provided by publisher.
