Paul Simon hasn't watched Alex Gibney's new three-and-a-half-hour documentary on his life, but he promises he will work up the courage some day.

The 81-year-old Simon, himself, hadn’t watched the film before its debut, and he didn’t watch it Sunday, either. “I’ll get up the courage to see it, no doubt,” he promised.

“In Restless Dreams,” which takes its name from a lyric in “The Sound of Silence” , also intimately captures Simon painstakingly assembling his latest album, “Seven Psalms,” which was released in May. “I haven’t accepted it entirely, but I’m beginning to,” Simon told the audience of his hearing loss in a post-screening Q&A.“Going Clear: Scientology and the Prison of Belief”

“Having the truth about me depicted by an observer is very interesting to me,” Simon said. “I think I’m probably not the person to want to describe what the truth is. I’m biased on both sides. I overestimate myself and I dislike myself to a sufficient degree that I’d rather give it to someone else to document.”
