Best Documentary Feature.[1]

Critical reception

Todd McCarthy from Variety wrote "The supreme iconoclast among 20th century American journalists, George Seldes, receives a well-earned, enthusiastic tribute in this useful documentary, even if the portrait feels somewhat incomplete. Currently on the fest and benefit circuit, pic is viable for short theatrical stints in situations open to political, historical and, tangentially, Jewish-themed fare, but will have a much longer life on public TV, cable and video."[2]
