A film about the most influential man you’ve never heard of



OPENS DECEMBER 9 - THE ROYAL, TORONTO
OPENS DECEMBER 30, 31, JANUARY 1 and 2 - MAYFAIR THEATRE, OTTAWA

“One has the persistent thought that if ten thousand people in all walks of life will stand up on their two feet and talk out and insist, we shall get back our country.”-- Paul Goodman, “Growing Up Absurd”

Following its Canadian Premiere at Doc Soup, and New York Premiere at Film Forum, Jonathan Lee’s highly praised feature documentary PAUL GOODMAN CHANGED MY LIFE will open Friday, December 9 at The Royal Theater, Toronto.

Author of the visionary bestseller GROWING UP ABSURD (1960), Paul Goodman was a poet, writer, pacifist, gay activist and a moral compass for many in the burgeoning counterculture of the 1960s.

PAUL GOODMAN CHANGED MY LIFE immerses you in an era when New York was peaking culturally and artistically; when ideas, and the people who propounded them, seemed to punch in at a higher weight class than they do now.

Unearthing unseen footage of Paul Goodman and his times, director/producer Jonathan Lee and producer/editor Kimberly Reed (Prodigal Sons) have woven together a rich portrait of an intellectual heavyweight whose ideas are long overdue for rediscovery.
