War Correspondence from the Present Tense

In 1997 Timothy “Speed” (you’ll see why) Levitch was without a mattress to call his own, and making his “living” in Manhattan giving tours of the city for visitors from around the globe. His tours were less historical anecdotes of the city, than sermons, diatribes, and philosophy dissertation rolled into one. A friend thought the life of Speed would make a good documentary-and it did. The result was The Cruise, which won Best Documentary at the 1998 Sundance Film festival and was released internationally by Artisan.
