THE ELEANOR ROOSEVELT STORY Time & Space Limited-
434 Columbia St. Hudson, NY 12534
5:30pm “The most moving biographical drama I have ever seen.” – The New York Times Awards (1965) An intimate and moving portrait of one of the most remarkable women in American history. It is the story of a lonely, unhappy child who became the most admired and respected woman in the world. Richard Kaplan’s lively documentary reveals the human face behind the American icon, beginning with the emotional deprivation suffered by this plain, awkward little girl born into a socially prominent and powerful family. Though she would eventually marry a man who would look beyond her awkwardness, Eleanor was not content to be the proper, silent wife to her husband Franklin’s extraordinary political career. Instead, she began a lifelong crusade to speak out about injustice and oppression in any form. 1965, 90 minutes. www.timeandspace.org
