    • The great documentary filmmaker D. A. Pennebaker was motivated to shoot by curiosity. He loved music and friendship, and he had an understanding that everything he filmed recorded histories both personal and cultural: Robert Kennedy and Sammy Davis Jr.
    • Pennebaker and his fellow camera operators (Jim Desmond and Mark Woodcock) eventually filmed the event—which took place on April 30, 1971—without official permits.
    • The “Dialogue on Women’s Liberation” was produced by Shirley Broughton for the Theater of Ideas, an organization that she founded in 1961. A ticket to the event ran a costly twenty-five dollars, and the crowd was made up of New York’s intellectual elite.
    • Mailer had hoped to debate Kate Millett, whose Sexual Politics (1970) investigated the subjugation of women in literature and art by male artists (Mailer included).
