Movie Reviews

Modamag.com - 10/10 by Susan GrangerAn enthralling, timeless documentary. It's the closest you'll ever get to actually being there.
Oregonian - 9/10 by Shawn LevyIt's the sort of history you could nibble on for hours.
Seattle Post-Intelligencer - 9/10 by William ArnoldThis free-flowing film certainly hits the high points as it flips around its talking-head celebrity sound bites at warp speed.
One Guy's Opinion - 9/10 by Frank SwietekThis is a picture that devotees of the American theatre will cherish.
Dallas Morning News - 9/10 by Tom SimeManages to immerse us in the moment, Broadway from the late '40s to the mid-'60s, even if we weren't there.
Village Voice - 9/10 by Charles McNultyMore buff than historian, McKay chats with anyone who can tell him about the good old days, a vaguely defined period that sprawls from the mid '40s to the late '60s.
Los Angeles Daily News - 8/10 by Evan HenersonThat the speakers are themselves fascinating characters is unquestionable. McKay's film is about as thorough a record of their time spent in the golden age as anyone is likely to produce.
San Francisco Chronicle - 8/10 by Ruthe SteinAn intriguing exploration of New York theater at the height of its glory.
Seattle Times - 8/10 by Misha BersonMcKay's straightforward cinematic valentine, which also includes rare archival stage footage, is a treat for those bedazzled by the idea of Broadway in its prime.
Los Angeles Times - 7/10 by Kevin ThomasIn what must have been a daunting challenge, given the richness of the material, McKay managed to cull from more than 250 hours of footage an admirably comprehensive and revealing documentary running a taut 110 minutes.
