You’re Nobody Till Somebody Loves You

This documentary focuses on the wedding of Timothy Leary and model Nena Von Schlebrugge, held at the Hitchcock house in Millbrook, New York. D.A. Pennebaker's film provides a window into the hallucinogenic culture that surrounded Leary during this time, following his departure from Harvard. The event was anticipated as a significant social gathering, dubbed the wedding of Mr. and Mrs. Swing by Cab Calloway.

The film features appearances by notable figures of the era, including Monti Rock III, Diane Arbus, and Charles Mingus. These individuals add depth to the film, reflecting the vibrant and often unconventional atmosphere of the 1960s. Pennebaker's intention to document a wedding offers a unique perspective on love and celebration amid the cultural upheaval of the time. This documentary stands as a time capsule of an extraordinary moment in history, making it a valuable piece for collectors interested in the intersections of art, culture, and personal milestones.
