It's hard to come away from the film feeling anything but disdain and a twinge of embarrassment toward Gay Talese.

The thematic strings don't quite come together in the end, but it's fascinating watching them unravel.

Uneven but often strangely compelling.

In that discomfortingly close range between the unlikeliest of friends, and between rapture and repulsion, the film finds its compelling edge.
