This documentary is the companion piece to New York filmmaker Alan Berliners 1991 film Intimate Stranger which followed the fascinating life of his grandfather, a seemingly average man with an extraordinary life. This time Berliners camera focuses on the life of his curmudgeonly father Oscar who resists his sons efforts nearly every step of the way because he feels his life has not been interesting or important enough to film. Still Berliner presses on and presents a bittersweet and insightful portrait.~ Sandra Brennan, All Movie Guide
