J.D. Salinger Doesn't Want to Talk

90%(1)IMDbDocumentaryHistory

Famous recluse J. D. Salinger has hidden from the world since "The Catcher in the Rye" took the world by storm. Banned in schools, and horrifically inspiring the killing of John Lennon, the book had repercussions no one could have foreseen and which seemed to drive the author further into hiding.
