A film about Timothy Leary's life and death.

Dr. Timothy Francis Leary (October 22, 1920 -- May 31, 1996) was an American writer, psychologist, futurist, and advocate of psychedelic drug research. An icon of 1960s counterculture, Leary is most famous as a proponent of the therapeutic, spiritual and emotional benefits of LSD. He coined and popularized the catch phrase "Turn on, tune in, drop out."

  • @brianz1214 Please present the source documents for your unfounded accusations. I refer you to Leary's own work as well as the Congressional Record. The only thing he fucked up on was in thinking Americans were sane, rational and mature enough to see the folly of prohibition, much like you fear tactics appear to show the ignorance he was trying to end.

  • @wilburdewey Well either way he fucked it up, he gave out how to make it and said it was seen as evil by the general public.

  • @wilburdewey "Leary is most famous as a proponent of the therapeutic, spiritual and emotional benefits of LSD." This is confirmed by his testimony in Congress and all his books and papers, no matter what the disinfo agents lead you to believe.

  • @brianz1214 No, Leary was accurate in his prediction in front of Ted Kennedy in the Senate that making it illegal would create the chaos it did. Try reading the Congressional Record instead of believing propaganda. Leary wanted that important tool to remain legal and regulated by knowledgeable professionals instead of the black market and mass usage. He held a great respect for the chemical that Kesy and Owsley did not have and feared the rise of the black market they created.

  • He did more to get lsd and all hallucinogens made illegal than any other person, we lost a very important tool because of his arrogance about lsd, it is a powerful substance that should be respected.

  • Leary's son looks like Cory Freidman
