"Titicut Folllies" Finally Gets a Release.
Documentary film maker Frederick Wiseman. Wiseman's made more than 20 documentaries, but his most famous is his first. It was a 1967 film called "Titicut Follies," about the conditions inside a Massachusetts hospital for the criminally insane. A state court banned the film, and it took 24 years for Wiseman to get the ban overturned. The film will be RE-premiered next week at New York's Film Forum. (Interview by Marty Moss-Coane).
