HIFF's SummerDocs To Launch Its Seventh Season at Guild Hall
"Best of Enemies," about the fierce debates between Gore Vidal and William F. Buckley during the 1968 Republican and Democratic conventions, is first up at this season's SummerDocs series.
At Guild Hall
“Best of Enemies,” a documentary by Robert Gordon and Morgan Neville about the 1968 television debates between Gore Vidal and William F. Buckley Jr., will inaugurate the Hampton International Film Festival’s SummerDocs series on July 11 at 7:30 p.m. at Guild Hall. The screening will be followed by a conversation with the filmmakers and Dick Cavett, who is interviewed in the film, led by Kurt Anderson, a novelist and radio host.
