MOVIE QUOTE OF THE DAY:
“The more I could find out about how political power really worked (not how it worked in textbooks but how it really worked) then the more I could tell people about that in a way that would make them understand and then the better informed their votes would be and then, hopefully, the better our democracy will be.”
Robert Caro in Turn Every Page

I’m sad about Robert Gottlieb… did he finish editing Caro’s fifth volume on Johnson? If not I don’t think his soul will settle. I don’t think *my* soul will settle either #RobertGottlieb #RobertCaro #TurnEveryPage

The new documentary TURN EVERY PAGE, about author #RobertCaro and editor #BobGottlieb is fantastic. If you're a Caro fan, and as eager as I am for Vol 5 of his LBJ books, you have to see this film. Any #book #author has to see this film too. Really well done. See it.

Special for me was that there are scenes in the very same rooms in the same Knopf offices where I was with my editor when I worked on my Caro-inspired book "The Friendly Orange Glow."

May Caro finish Volume 5 in time!!!!!

Went to NYC this weekend to see the #RobertCaro documentary “Turn Every Page” at Film Forum. It’s a great film & wonderful to watch in a small theater with New Yorkers, who laughed at all the funny moments & clapped at the end. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gv3CRojrbeE
