Still a Revolutionary – Albert Einstein: Directed by Julia Newman. With Michio Kaku, Michael Paley, Alice Calaprice, Herbert Freeman Jr.. Albert Einstein, the most famous scientist of all time, was a world-renowned celebrity, greeted like a rock star when he appeared in public. An anti-war firebrand, Einstein also spoke out on issues ranging from women’s rights and racism to immigration and nuclear arms control. But today, his image has been neutered into that of a charmingly absent-minded genius. He was, in fact, a powerful force for social change and a model for political activism. Using a wealth of rarely-seen archival footage, correspondence, and new and illuminating interviews, filmmaker Julia Newman makes the case that Albert Einstein’s example of social and political activism is as important today as are his brilliant, groundbreaking theories.

“My first episode. It was quite alright, some funny scenes. The animation was solid, but the story lacked originality and complexity.”
