Where's My Roy Cohn?

Watched this on a plane, so I may well have missed some nuance, but this was nonetheless an engaging look at "the guy behind the guy." ...or perhaps many guys.

A very interesting documentary about a notorious - and notoriously hypocritical - lawyer whose career spanned decades of American history.

this is one of the most sensational looks at a devilish self hating creature who steered the world as we know it to it's current horrific position..ATTACK! DENY! sound familiar?

THIS MOVIE IS PROPAGANDA. DO NOT WATCH! Its not a very good doc and Its obvious this director goes overboard trying to smear this guy. Yes we all know that he was controversial and ruthless in the court room. Yes He did some bad things. The fact he played a huge part in exposing and eliminating communism in our government and hollywood is made to look like a bad thing when Cohn is actually a hero, We need the same thing today.

This hard-hitting documentary about McCarthy Era counsel Roy Cohn presents a rather damning portrait of its subject, one whose relentlessness, determination and drive served his dubious clients well but helped set the US down a path of unbridled greed and self-serving interests that have not only given free rein to the power elite. but have also changed the overall culture for the worse. The film features a wealth of archive footage -- so much so that it almost relies on it a little too much in telling its story -- but its team of analysts helps to balance that, offering colorful and telling commentary about a manipulative puppet master who has left quite a legacy -- and not one that anyone should be proud of.

should be required viewing for every single person in this country...it's all about what we're about NOW, yikes!

Two peas in a pod regarding their philosophies of life: Roy Cohn and whom he regarded as his protege the current occupant of the White House. A must-see.

I prefer documentaries with less of an agenda. There are many holes the director just fills with non-sequiturs, leaps of faith, and innuendo. It just makes me appreciate how documentarians like Ken Burns and Ric Burns are light years ahead of filmmakers like these. A nasty bit of work, much like the person it is about. Hard pass!

Documentarian Matt Tyrnauer once again proves he's one of the best out there in his latest, 'Where's My Roy Cohn?'. Consisting of tons of archival footage, Tyrnauer uses a heavy-handed style to pound into our brains that Cohn was a complicated yet evil vessel. When he connects the dots to Cohn and one of his clients Donald Trump the film really pops. Tyrnauer takes his time, but moves fairly rapidly along the entire life of Cohn. There are talking heads who all seem to have a disdain for the titular individual. It's another in the growing line of docs from this filmmaker that are worth watching! Final Score: 8.1/10

A spectacular and engaging documentary showing that Roy Cohn should be burning in hell. not only for what his past deeds but for what he’s given us now, president Trash. Roy Cohn is top three worse humans of all time
