A Joan Didion Documentary Is in the Works

joandidionUpdate: The project reached its funding goal in roughly 24 hours of being posted.

Griffin Dunne, nephew of famed journalist Joan Didion, launched a Kickstarter campaign today for a documentary of his aunt. Titled We Tell Ourselves Stories In Order to Live after that memorable first line out of Didion’s The White Album, the film will be the first and only documentary made about the writer.

On its first day of funding, the Kickstarter campaign has already surpassed half of its $80,000 goal.
