8/10
writer's struggle for a big, successful novel.
2 January 2024
Kurt vonnegut's story, as written, directed, and recorded by friend robert weide. If vonnegut's stories had a dark side, it was because he experiened serious drama, trauma, and loss during his life. A family member committed suicide when he was 21. And the same year, as a soldier, he was taken prisoner by the germans, and held at dresden. Which then got bombed by the allies. He lost his best friend to cancer. His life had started with a happy childhood, mostly due to the attention of his sisters. Then things got serious. The depression, withdrawing from college, and heading off to war. Quitting his job at general electric, he wrote full time, in between teaching assignments, which paid a more steady income. If he could just have a big success... good stuff! Director weide also worked extensively at curb your enthusiasm.
