5 (or more) things I thought while watching this
Buckley was much more charismatic when he was viewed live.
Vidal was much more verbally astute when watched live.
Buckley was upset about his "queer" comment; I had never known that from anything I have ever read, including his flagship publication.
Vidal accused Republicans of inciting the exact same thing the pro-Democrat protesters did at the '68 Chicago convention.
This documentary was fair for the first half, then decidedly pro Vidal for the second half.
I despise a "fair and balanced" purportedly un-biased account of an event that uses unproven ad hominem and decidedly pre-determined guests to force a point.
So be it. I enjoyed it.
