Abstract David Ansen (Newsweek) praises Kushner's "humor, ambition, vision and dazzling braininess" and David Courier (Sundance Festival) writes "one of our greatest living playwrights, Pulitzer and Tony Award winner Tony Kushner (Angels in America, Caroline, or Change, Munich) is a consummate artist and indomitable political activist committed to equality and social justice ... watching Marcia Gay Harden as Laura Bush in a scene from Kushner's new play is worth the price of admission ... hearing Meryl Streep read a prayer that Kushner wrote asking - no, demanding God to cure AIDS will tear your heart out." In the film, Tony Kushner takes us from his childhood home in small-town Louisiana to his development as a writer, politically active gay man, and endlessly quotable globe-trotting force for a more literate and compassionate universe. Featuring Meryl Streep, Marcia Gay Harden, Tonya Pinkins, Maurice Sendak, George C. Wolfe, Oskar Eustis, Frank Rich and others.
