One of the few--, make that very, very few documentaries which captures the complex man who was my father. Mulholland has given us an Ernest Hemingway whom I recognize. Trust me, this is rarely the case.

True Gen is a genuine piece of work. So moving and so deeply felt. These two iconic Americans have been dead almost half-a-century and I had tears in my eyes by the end, as if they’d just died. True Gen is a remarkable piece of documentary filmmaking.
– Craig Gilbert, Producer, An American Family
True Gen shows my father as he really was. People have often asked how Ernest Hemingway could have been friends with Gary Cooper. These people are talking about the shallow public images of both men. True Gen is about the men behind those shallow images.
– Maria Cooper, Daughter of Gary Cooper
True Gen is a genuinely great documentary. And in exploring the lives of two legendary Americans, the documentary also explores the history of America in the first half of the 20th Century. I was enthralled from beginning to end.
