We take for granted so much in life,don't we? So much happens in corners of lives that have a profound effect on the lives of many of us.The dedication to a profession that drives so many to excellence and ripples in society for decades. Be it the actual writers of laws, the actual surgeons who operate, the actual....hmmm webmasters that organise websites...or those who use the pen as a sword with which to fight lies and deceptions. What I got from this fascinating and endearing glimpse into the life and times of this man, was simply that....his dedication to his profession. A dedication that was tempered and forged by levels of integrity that seem to be so grieviously infected by ratings viruses nowadays. I am also struck by a paradox I see here: it could be expected that someone from a privileged background would continue to 'play the game'.It's almost to me as though he rose above the game and was not restricted by the so called 'privileged background' in much the same way that someone from a 'poor background' rises beyond that. An excellent biography,spots and all,that is in itself a historical archive. This was a good experience waching this.

This film was exquisitely crafted, with a sense of love, adoration, respect, honor and dedication, toward a giant man, who embodied what it means to search for truth, and present the facts to the people. In this day and age, when incredibly tiny men and women are attempting to squash truth, with all of the power in their beings, a story like this really resonates. As Rudy the rooster famously said, "Truth is not truth". Well Rudy you are wrong. There is truth, it is not an alternate universe, and the truth is a very real and precious gift. His life was extraordinary. His influence undeniable. His legacy intact. Even when he was the subject of a humiliating expose, he approached it with the same degree of integrity, sacrifice, and humility, that he brought to the table, his entire career. His honesty should be an inspiration to all.

I wonder what he thought of this documentary. A fair shot at his privileged background, his insatiable desire for crack reporting, and his reign of 29 years at the Post. I read the post and was familiar with both Kate, Sally, Ben and company. They had a stellar reputation unlike the MSM currently and I am blessed to have that experience in memory. Watching Ben, with his handsome overpowering looks, wide toothy grin, slick tan and uber confidence was of particular interest, attempting to imagine life with his type of upbringing. How easy it was to make instant friends with a future president, taking in all the celebrities, fitting in anywhere, demanding the impossible and getting it with a sweet smile. I appreciate his hard work and dedication that helped propel him to super stardom but he had alot going for him that most of us mere mortal do not. I absolutely live for these more than superficial insights into the movers and shakers of this Universe. Bradlee's life overshadows most but I give Kate Graham credit for having the guts to hire someone of that caliber. HIgh recommend for demonstrating that you CAN smoke 4 packs a day and live to 93! Amazing profile.

"The Newspaperman: The Life and Times of Ben Bradlee" (2017 release; 90 min.) is a bio-documentary of Ben Bradlee, best known as the long-serving Executive Editor of the Washington Post. As the documentary opens, we are reminded that in 2994 Bradlee wrote his memoirs "A Good Life" and it is Bradlee himself who does the voice-over for much of this documentary (presumably taken from the audio-book version of that memoir), a little bit eerie to be honest (from beyond the grave so to speak--Bradlee passed away in 2014). We then go back in time, to Bradlee's Boston roots and upbringing, his college years at Harvard, "graduating by the skin of my teeth" (as we see his very mediocre grade card), his WWII service in the Navy, and his tentative start as a journalist. Couple of comments: this is the latest from veteran documentarian John Maggio (best known for his work at PBS' American Experience). Here he takes a look at Ben Bradlee's life, and what a colorful like it is indeed. I wasn't aware as to the strong ties between JFK and Bradlee (and their wives), making a tight foursome (but that did not stop JFK from having an affair with the sister of Bradlee's wife). At the core of the documentary is of course Bradlee's tenure at the Washington Post, turning it from a "provincial, second-rate" newspaper into the national force to be reckoned with. We rehash once more the drama that were the "Pentagon Papers" episode in 1971, and then of course the Watergate scandal, of which Bradlee muses: In Nixon's darkest hour, he gave the press its finest hour". Some attention is devoted as well to Bradlee's at times volcanic personal life. But in the end, as he himself acknowledges, "I have few regrets" (others comment "Bradlee never had any regrets"), which to me is bit of a turn-off. We all do things at one point of another in our lives that cause us to have some regrets... This is the latest release in the HBO Documentary series, and I caught it on HBO Demand a couple of days ago. In the end, this is mildly interesting at best. Nary a critical word is uttered about Bradlee, despite his oftentimes controversial approach to things. Surely the documentary is released at this particular time to take advantage of the buzz that is building for Steven Spielberg's latest movie "The Post", starring Tom Hanks as Bradlee and Meryl Streep as Post publisher Kay Graham (the movie will come out in 2 weeks). It's not that I regret seeing "The Newspaperman" but nor do I not see a compelling reason to seek this out again in repeat viewing.
