-
[T]his film offers little insight into whatever battles - internal or external - Hesburgh must have fought. It's far too busy polishing that halo.
May 7, 2019 | Rating: C- | Full Review… -
A compellingly attractive if one-sided portrait of a figure of exceptional gifts, astonishingly diverse accomplishments and extraordinary influence.
May 2, 2019 | Rating: B+ | Full Review… -
Serving as a profile in courage whose hero was widely loved, it doesn't necessarily convince those of us who don't know the man that we needed to see a doc about him.

[A] thoroughly engaging documentary chronicle of the life and turbulent times of longtime Notre Dame president Father Theodore M. Hesburgh, whose tenure coincided with a particularly pivotal stretch of American history.
May 2, 2019 | Full Review… -
A portrait of a man who can be seen as not merely blameless, but genuinely heroic.
May 2, 2019 | Full Review… -
This moving, illuminating slice of American life and social history serves as a stirring example that we should all do much better. And we can start right now.
