Gore Vidal

documentary

Solid doc on a privileged man who spent his life writing about the lies being spread by the political class. He knew them well...he had been raised as one of them.

I agreed with all his views (save one) and was particularly glad he disowned Hitchens for supporting the neocons in their quest for world domination. He was a gay man in a time when that was a liability (to put it mildly) but he carried on with wit and panache...

Like the saying goes...living well is the best revenge.
