Evan Williams The Australian 10/31/2008
3/5
His interviews suggest candour and humility and a wonderful enthusiasm for whatever cause he's espousing. Go to Full Review Jake Wilson The Age (Australia) 10/24/2008
2/5
Jolley and de Garis never come close to revealing whatever lurks in the heart of this intelligent, ambitious, plainly unhappy and not particularly admirable man, who bears scars from many wounds, not all of them self-inflicted. Go to Full Review Julie Rigg MovieTime, ABC Radio National 10/24/2008
It's an absorbing and honest film, but a sad one. Go to Full Review Brian Duff FILMINK (Australia) 10/24/2008
An indelible vision of a compromised, peculiar man. Go to Full Review Margaret Pomeranz At the Movies (Australia) 10/24/2008
4/5
An extraordinary account of a life spectacularly but not always wisely or well-lived. Go to Full Review Louise Keller Urban Cinefile 10/20/2008
I couldn't stop watching this riveting documentary about a man so obsessed by celebrity that he became one. But the story doesn't end there. Wealth, fame, power and love nose-dive on life's slippery dip. Go to Full Review Read all reviews

09/26/2012 "The reason I write assholes so well is because I was one." Great quote. I can't get enough of Dominick Dunne! He's vindictive, vengeful, unforgiving and he fully admits his asshole muscle is well exercised. The fact he concedes he went after and took down the judge in his daughter's murder trial, and the fact he owns up to his f-ups only serves to make me like him more. Using a Turnbull & Asser silk tie as a tourniquet to shoot up cocaine is classic Dunne. I'm surprised he lived as long as he did.. Loved this film. I could have done without the producer's intrusive off-camera questions, however. See more 06/12/2012 This guy had an extraordinary life. Well worth a watch. See more 05/23/2012 Very interesting bio See more 04/08/2012 Wasted his life chasing it. Found it inside himself. See more terry g @MiamiPrep 05/17/2010 Effective & affecting bio-documentary. Insightful. Mr. Dunne is nothing if not candid & honest. I left the theater wanting to know more about him, and his journey through life. See more Read all reviews
