Ayn Rand - A Sense of Life

Directed by : Michael Paxton

AYN RAND - A SENSE OF LIFE is the first authorized film look at the life and work of the controversial Russian-born author of "The Fountainhead" and "Atlas Shrugged." Narrated by Emmy Award-wining actress Sharon Gless, the documentary offers millions of fans the opportunity to relive the drama of Ayn Rand`s life and fiction: from her early childhood and escape from Soviet Russia to her struggle and triumph as an American writer whose book sales exceed 300,000 copies annually after five decades in print. Drawing from personal papers and public archives across two continents, the film combines fact, literary fiction and an intimate weave of interviews with Rand`s intellectual heir Leonard Peikoff, television journalist Mike Wallace, as well as rare photos, archival footage and an original film-noir scene from her 1934 play, "Ideal."

I have always been fascinated with Ayn Rand, and I have to say that this is an extremely interesting film. I highly recommend this film.

This is an exciting and inspiring documentary that gives the viewer a keen insight into the life and thinking of a brilliant author and philosopher. The family portrait, including discussion of Ayn Rand`s two younger sisters, makes a human being out of the subject and gives context for understanding her approach to the world, sex, and work.
