Here is what the critics are saying...
"Grade A! Thrilling, haunting, perceptive and beautifully made."
–Owen Gleiberman, Entertainment Weekly
"Excellent! An Unreasonable Man is, like The Fog of War, one of those opportunities to step back, take a breath, and remember the seething power of recent history."
-David Poland, Movie City News
An Unreasonable Man taps rare archival footage and more than forty diverse interviews to paint a complex portrait about the storied career of Ralph Nader. This two-hour film (which has garnered wide critical acclaim in recent weeks) uses Nader's harshest critics and most eloquent supporters to create a compelling and inspirational interpretation of Nader's life and of our times.
