Critic Reviews
-
Phil Hall, Film Threat
A well-produced tribute to a complex and often exasperating personality.
-
Mark R. Leeper, Mark Leeper's Reviews
Staccato and compelling, this fast-paced biography recounts some of his views and opinions--writings that alienated people and won supporters.
-
James Plath, Movie Metropolis
A documentary is only as fascinating as its subject, and, love him or hate him (most did the latter), Norman Mailer was one fascinating American.
