“Paul W. Williams is a gifted and highly educated writer, filmmaker, actor, and friend. Harvard, Hollywood, Hitmen, and Holy Men is the story of his life and times from the conclusion of World War II until now. It's funny. It's sad. It's exciting. It's sexy. And it's frightening—sometimes startlingly so—but it's authentic and true with a great cast of characters, all real people. If you're interested in exploring new dimensions and perspectives of creativity, pick it up and get on board.”
— Elliott Gould, actor
“Finally the world will know the extraordinary and hallucinogenic story of Paul Williams—the unsung hero of the 'Easy Rider, Raging Bulls' filmmaking era. Whether he's swallowing peyote with David Carradine or playing 3-on-3 basketball with teammates Francis Ford Coppola and Terrence Malick against Fidel Castro or directing a forgotten masterpiece about Harvard dope dealers— every tale that Williams spins is a jaw dropper.”
—Larry Karaszewski, co-writer of Ed Wood, Man on the Moon, and The People vs. O.J. Simpson, V. P. of History and Preservation for the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences, AMPAS
