American Masters
Salinger - Preview
Salinger — the American Masters series’ 200th episode — is the first work to get beyond "The Catcher in the Rye" author’s meticulously built wall: his childhood, painstaking work methods, marriages, private world and the secrets J.D. Salinger left behind after his death in 2010. The film interviewed 150 subjects, including Salinger’s friends, colleagues and members of his inner circle.
