3.5/4
Don't miss it. Go to Full Review Ben Kenigsberg New York Times 09/24/2020
The documentary is conventionally structured and sometimes placid, but it has an alarming message. Go to Full Review Richard von Busack SF Weekly 10/19/2020
Public Trust is as full of well-photographed environmental rapture as a Disney nature film. But it has far more of a point, and much more of a reason to exist. Go to Full Review Dennis Harvey 48 Hills 10/02/2020
