January 25, 2022—Producer and director Robert Weide (“Curb Your Enthusiasm,” “Lenny Bruce: Swear to Tell the Truth”) became obsessed with Kurt Vonnegut’s books in high school and began a correspondence with the author that stretched into a twenty-five-year friendship. Weide joins LOA Live to discuss his new documentary “Kurt Vonnegut: Unstuck in Time,” which chronicles their relationship and the filmmaking process as it explores why Vonnegut’s generation-defining work is fresher and more relevant than ever.
