Rose Styron is an incredible woman and you will be greatly rewarded by spending this time in her company!
Tony-winning playwright, director and filmmaker James Lapine befriends poet Rose Styron, the widow of the great American novelist William Styron (Sophie’s Choice, The Confessions of Nat Turner). Rose shares the fascinating story of her complex life as a writer and human rights activist, life partner to William, and her life on Martha’s Vineyard spent with many remarkable people ranging from the Kennedys, to Frank Sinatra, James Baldwin, and John Belushi.
“Rose’s stories are frank and intimate, and through her openness and thoughtfulness, the conversations open the film to questions of authorship, ethical storytelling, monogamy, parenting, addiction, and sacrifice….a thoughtful, personal study of what it means to make things work in a relationship.” – POV , Canada’s Documentary Magazine
