There's an honesty in what Gold writes and the way he writes it, which is why his words have so much impact. The film has a similar impact to one of his reviews.

While the documentary occasionally verges on hagiography... it doesn't irritate... It's just a nice movie about a nice man

Globe and Mail

Gabbert's film is part portrait, part city symphony. It celebrates Gold as a fixture of his native Los Angeles and L.A. as in thrall to its stalwart guide.
