Blu-Ray Review: ‘Page One’ Chronicles Best of Times, Worst of Times
Submitted by mattmovieman on October 26, 2011 - 7:19amCHICAGO – Billing Andrew Rossi’s documentary “Page One” as a year in the life of The New York Times is a trifle misleading. Such a sprawling premise would demand a running time better suited to a miniseries than a 92-minute feature. Rossi limits his focus to the Media Desk and the reporters struggling to keep their paper relevant, but like all great documentaries, the film is about so much more than the figures inhabiting its foreground.
