The film constructs its portrait by relying on a wealth of archival footage, interviews with close friends and colleagues, and a sharp analysis of post-war America's cultural climate. It explores the machinery of star-making and its devastating personal cost.
What lingers after the credits is a poignant meditation on the price of fame, systemic hypocrisy, and the enduring power of a truth long suppressed. — MovieFinder Editorial
