Review of Koch (2013) by Richard V — 01 Oct 2016
A straight-forward but fascinating documentary about how Ed Koch - equal parts controversial and beloved - helped New York transform from bankrupt disaster of 1977 to the modern metropolis of 1989. It is a very even story that helps show that Koch wasn't always beloved.
In fact, several people discuss how he is racist, opportunistic, or shrewed. But what made Koch so fascinating was that he never held back, making him not just an iconic mayor, but an iconic New Yorker.
