Cannot overemphasize how impressive Matt Tyrnauer’s commentary on his film in this clip was. He speaks like a writer. A GOOD writer. Unhesitatingly, thoughtfully, and accessing a range of vocabulary that not only expresses his own mind, but the depth of his analysis of the subject at hand. Not a bad voice either. I’ll be keeping an eye out and searching for more Matt. Of course, have had and will always have ultimate respect and warm newsy feelings for Amy Goodman!
I had the same impression.Somewhat disappointed by the film, it was all of what I already knew-and how excellent Matt Tymaur’s aptitude as an excellent communicator. Thus-I ABSOLUTELY want to keep my eyes open, re. anything that Tymaur directs in any genre, from here into the future.
It's interesting that there is no mention of democrat driven down and dirty malfeasance? Matt is a well spoken and accomplished filmmaker, but his commentary presupposes a blanket innocence of Cohn's accusers.
There were two important men in Trump's life, his father and Roy Cohn. I appreciate hearing someone else made a movie about it. Great interview and thank you.
Yea right mate , what rock would they have to have uncover to find a actor to crawl out of that’s as bad as Trump.. what’s wrong mate , the ferking horror movie for the last 6 years not enough for you.
@@queenslander954 I heard it was James Woods. What a disgusting mess. He was Trumps best friend? A mob lawyer and former imagined communist prosecutor. I believe that this is where Trumps ability to lie was magnified. The constant need to proclaim victory, contradictory to reality and ethics. He lost so many cases. Never admitting defeat. As a slumlord Trump had over 2,900 cases involving racial discrimination, systemic unsafe housing issues, and everything else that might pertain to being a slumlord.
"Important men in tRumps life," writings on the wall, screwed over both of them, that's the nature of 'importance' to him. And our America's just the current b*tch he's grabbing by the p*ssy and cheating on, selling her national security out to putin and the Saudis and you're enamored by that. May you all get the same just desserts.
We get this show every night at 7 our time on FNX (First Nations Experience PBS channel 4 station) - maybe a person doesn't get it on cable - we ditched cable almost 3 years ago and use antenna so I'm not sure about cable but my cousin in Minn. by Fargo gets that station also and I think she has cable. This is great news program.
what i find so tragic is people like cohn cohen and yes trump getting back at socieiy at large for not allowing a honest relection and experience of their sexuality w. reich would h abe had much to say to that
Curious World :Amy Goodman is so excellent at speaking to people (live!) the more I listen to everyone else, the more I want them to direct the conversation by simply stating, ‘Talk about that.’ She’s simply the best. ✌🏾

THANK YOU Matt, for saying what I've always known about how poor our history is taught in schools. Especially what was in the books during the 50's and 60's.
Dr. Trixie CP Trump has been involved with Mafia since NYC & Atlantic City, nobody get a casino in AC without mob. Also, Russian connection to Trump family is Russian mob dates back again to NYC. Watch David Cay Johnston.
Reminds me of those old cowboy movies! Stir everyone up with a bunch of lies and have a good lynching! No need to research... lynch first, research later!
Yes, that indeed they are impressively brilliant, strong and willing to courageously face any challenge brought upon them by the corruption that exists in the political power, for whom have always viewed men like Cohn and Trump as a real threat.
@Sir Alfred Lawrence Anyone that's a full on, (but unknowing aka stupid) Trump supporter they're in for such a YUGE surprise when the new crew, "The Deep State" Stands Up and Takes A Bow. Many ppl will so regret NOT moving out of the USA. Hard to imagine Sir Alfred, that it just might be worse here in the USA in many different ways in the Land Of The formerly FREE And The BRAVE. Get out those beggin' bowls and dust them off and *IF* you play those cards right you just might not loose your head. lol lol Those 2 Nations you mentioned just might look like paradise in comparison. Laugh now if you must .... lol lol
Thank You Sir for making this film at this time. Lets hope it is widely seen across America. This needs extreme promotion, to be seen from up to 8 million citizens if possible.
A Great interview. TY for this. Cohn also swindled his family out of the Lionel Train business; running the company into the ground causing bankruptcy almost resulting it to be dismantled.
He was one of the most despicable homo Sapiens to ever walk upright. No surprise Tricky Dicky & card-carrying Nazi Reagan were best friends with him. Blech.
I'm surprised that Mr. Tyrnauer doesn't correct Goodman on the correct pronunciation of Cohn, what's the matter with her? Many people listen to 'Democracy Now!' on radio and if they didn't know they'd be looking for the wrong information.
Simple narcissism, usually Republican elitists, and handed down to their kids raised on pedestals, but these kids are known, in their old age, to suffer a sadly pathetic end. The old narcissist's demise is studied statistically, but the damage they cause is horrific in the lives they touch.
Gosh! Just when the film's director was about to explain tRump's MO for every thing he does Amy had (?) to interrupt him. Sometimes it's good to just shut-up and let the guest talk!
Condolences to you and your family. What a wonderful smile she had - really authentic! It looks like you have a wealth of memories to help fill the physical void Ms. Chou's passing left. Not the same as her being here, I am sure, but consider that some do not even have those memories. The pictures show a person who really looked full of life and fun. You are a very lucky man and best wishes to you and your family.
Good comment, but I think you meant NO (not "know") decency. You should have proof read your comment, and should familiarize yourself with the "edit" feature of TH-cam comments.
Newsflash. The word 'gay' had its definition hijacked in the mid 1900's from meaning 'happy' to meaning homosexual. Not that there is anything inherently wrong with being homosexual.
If you want to see Joseph Welch, the lawyer who represented the US Army, and who actually put an end to the McCarthy period via ‘Army McCarthy’ can be seen in in a movie, playing a judge. ‘Anatomy of a Murder, 1959, dir. Otto Preminger, is an excellent film starring Jimmy Steward, Lee Remnick, Eva Arden and George C. Scott, Joseph Welch plays the judge in this courtroom drama. You’ll also get a surprise appearance, except not now, in seeing Duke Ellington, who scored the film beautifully, in a scene of the movie.
I'm just beginning to familiarise myself with this odious and ctooked character. The Director did a marvelous job explaining his rise and demise. and great questions by the presenter. Thanks a lot.
Calling Roy Cohn a "handmaiden" is an insult to handmaidens. Also, I think you should say "self-proclaimed dirty trickster Roger Stone", to be perfectly clear he admits proudly to be.
USA will be a completely and amazing country when all this stuff is figured out. First, rebuild Guantanamo Bay for the traitors and take away the boats, choppers, and planes.
thats a likely comparison. that vampire reminds me of Joseph Goebbels too. its that hate in his eyes and the way his mouth twist up when trying make lies into truth
The MOB became the right hand of the Secret Service in many countries: in many Latino Countries, in Italy, in Russia. They need the control of money supply & the business tycoons (the last also become more powerful). The Secret Service now becomes more powerful than any Government, so it merged with the Gov. (A KGB agent Putin became President not by accident). In Italy - the mob here in many cases is the right hand of the Catholic Church not to mention the Church itself has their own Secret Service, Church own financial center so in essence that is Government withing the Government, they can not be brought to justice..
Never once was I under this impression. Simply coincidence. The subject they were discussing happened to deal with people currently associated with the 'right'. There was never any inference to no corruption existing on the 'left'.
Who's watching this in 2024? It's quite revealing!
watching after I watched “The Apprentice” and it just strengthened my opinion that cohn created a monster and left us alone with it
It's propaganda.
This guy is an excellent guest and speaker. Very impressed.
The connections to people and who they are, what they do where they do it 💯. Dirty pool indeed 💯. Americans need to wake up and smell the dirt 💯

Yes but there is much much more about Roy Cohn.
That was a really damned interesting piece, DN. Another stellar piece of journalism that’ll never be mentioned on cable news.

I certainly remember the McCarthy era - he was crazy and Bobby Kennedy laid into him .
i ain't good at cabinetry
share, share, share!
Pati Pena : 😁
The interviewer apparently has never heard of Roy Cohn, since she insists on calling him "Cohen"
She didn't really "insist"; she merely kept repeating her unknowing mispronunciation, and no one corrected her.
Thank you once again DN for a great post, and for keeping us informed ;)
Absolutely mind blowing. What tangled web we weave when first we practice to deceive.
The Simpsons covered Roy Cohn well:
"And that unpopular, hateful child grew up to be … Roy Cohn.

Thank you Amy, great interview.
again Amy great story,thanks
Very enlightening...lots of stuff I never knew. I look forward to see the complete film.

There's a Mini Series that was on HBO back in 2003-4ish.

It was called " Angel's In America"

Trump, Roger Stone, Roy Cohn. Like attracts like.
This film should be book ended with the Apprentice movie that just came out.

Amazing testimony btw. Ty DN!
Firstly, noone had the guts to tell this woman that it's pronounced "cone" not "co-hen"? and next, Cohn was not gay, he was homosexual.

Wow. The Team of Vipers goes back a ways!

Interesting that this production completely avoids the child trafficking and blackmail operations aspect of Roy Cohn's activities. Hmmm . 🤔
Hillary is a yardstick of decency???? Oh, please.
“The walls are closi- falling down?” Damn I love video that preserves faulty thinking forever.
Roy Cohn is my idol! Brilliant man
Roy Cohn carried J Edgar Hoover's suitcases
Regardless of what Julius Rosenberg was found guilty of, he didn't deserve to die. at the hands of the state, much less Ethel. RIP :(
One could say that Roy Cohn earned and merited his own end. Unable to be of any more transactional use, he died alone and forsaken.
Cohn kind of reminds me of Steven Miller, another cut throat, wormy man.
Who needs Halloween? This is what is truly frightening,
Drinking game: Take a drink every time this man says “Uh” 🍻
Fascinating stuff beside that though.
bad habit...........agreed.
And every time she mispronounces Cohn as Cohen. A little show prep can go a long way.
Great Interview! Like Roy Cohn’s Shakespearean end, Trump will also have such an end.
5 star reporting !
It’s Cohn, not Cohen! Great interview though
Poetic justice that the progeny of the architect of one red scare is the victim of another red scare?
Awesome and very compelling interview. For those interested, there's a very good movie starring James Woods called "Citizen Cohn."
