AFI Fest To Close With World Premiere Of Errol Morris’ ‘My Psychedelic Love Story’
Anthony D'Alessandro Editorial Director/Box Office EditorThe 34th Annual AFI Fest announced today that the Showtime Errol Morris-directed documentary My Psychedelic Love Story will close the festival.The movie follows LSD high priest Timothy Leary and how he became a narc in 1974 and abandoned the millions he urged to turn on, tune in and drop out. Was his “perfect love” Joanna Harcourt-Smith a government pawn, as suggested by Allen Ginsberg? Morris and Harcourt-Smith reexamine the Leary saga: his period of exile, reimprisonment and subsequent cooperation with the authorities.
