Barbara Walters (Sept. 25, 1929-Dec. 30, 2022) didn't just report the news -- she made news. She was a true American original and a trailblazer who broke ground for women in broadcasting. The documentary gives viewers an intimate and raw look at her astonishing career, personal life, and the challenges she faced trying to balance it all as a woman in a male-dominated industry. Walters, in her own words, also reflects on the high price of fame and the legacy she hoped to inspire.

Jeremy Barr Washington Post It’s an extremely thorough and enjoyable recap of the life of an extraordinary, pioneering television journalist. But it never really goes deeper than that. Jun 23, 2025 Full Review Christian Blauvelt IndieWire Is it fair of us now to ask her to do have done more to initiate real change? Probably not. That’s easy enough for us to say with the hindsight of 2025. “Tell Me Everything” is sharp enough not to ask that of her either. Rated: B+ Jun 13, 2025 Full Review Daniel Fienberg The Hollywood Reporter It’s a simple and respectful documentary that, had it come out a month after Walters’ death, would have made its point decently. It’s in taking that step back and using the distance afforded by time for something more substantive that it falls short. Jun 13, 2025 Full Review Johnny Loftus Decider Informative and at times very revealing, Tell Me Everything builds like a product of what its subject pioneered: the newsmaking celebrity profile, this time created around Barbara Walters herself. Jun 24, 2025 Full Review Christopher Campbell Nonfics (Substack) It’s a highly reverent film that, like Walters, never stoops to puffery. Jun 20, 2025 Full Review Read all reviews
