Touchpoints Film -- Oliver Sacks: His Own Life

Sunday, November 1, 2020 14 Cheshvan 5781

3:00 PM - 4:30 PMBy Zoom

In his books, neuroscientist Oliver Sacks displayed a singular knack for making his patients' lives read like novels, said Kevin Crust in the Los Angeles Times.  And yet, "the most fascinating life of all was his own," as this "majestic" Ric Burns documentary reveals. Born in Britain, Sacks was a San Francisco pill addict before he discovered his calling. In footage filmed months before his own 2015 death, he revisits his ups and downs "with great satisfaction and verve." NOTE: The film is available for streaming only through October 31, $12 on demand at KINOMARQUEE.com through the Music Box in Chicago. Click on the link below to watch!
