A well-produced tribute to a complex and often exasperating personality.
Staccato and compelling, this fast-paced biography recounts some of his views and opinions--writings that alienated people and won supporters.
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.
