San Francisco Chronicle

An amiable portrait of this somewhat enigmatic radio performer.

Rated: 3/4

Variety

Portrait captures the charm of A Prairie Home Companion and its creator considerably more than Robert Altman's star-heavy 2006 feature of the same name.

Peter Schilling

Minneapolis Star Tribune

The Man on the Radio in the Red Shoes is an utterly pedantic TV documentary inexplicably given life on the big screen.

Rated: 1.5/4

For fans of the radio show this documentary will compliment its content and creator in an informative and personal presentation. For anyone it is another documentary about a man who spends much of his time writing and has attainted rather cultish status.

Rated 3 out of 5 stars
