WHERE’S MY ROY COHN?

November 3 – 13
WHERE’S MY ROY COHN?

From the director of Citizen Jane, comes Where’s My Roy Cohn? One of the most controversial and influential American men of the 20th Century, Roy Cohn was a ruthless and unscrupulous lawyer and political power broker whose 28-year career ranged from acting as chief counsel to Senator Joseph McCarthy’s Communist-hunting subcommittee to molding the career of a young Queens real estate developer named Donald Trump. Even those who think they know everything about Roy Cohn will find much that is new in this deeply researched film, which utilizes a great deal of material never publicly seen. Those with little previous knowledge of Cohn’s story will have their eyes opened to the sizeable impact he continues to have on us, despite being dead for decades. By showing how America’s current divisions are rooted in dark areas of our past, WHERE’S MY ROY COHN? offers an illuminating portrait of where we are today.

“A biographical portrait that doubles as an origin story for today’s amoral political landscape, its marriage of incisiveness and timeliness should make it an indie hit this fall.” – Nick Schager, Variety

“[A] shrewd, illuminating exploration of a man whose influence, for better or worse, may have far outdone even his wildest dreams.” – Leah Greenblatt, Entertainment Weekly
