Review of Koch (2013) by Eric H — 11 Apr 2013
It's called 'Koch' but it's really a documentary about New York City during the 1980s and it's mayor, Ed Koch with a few tidbits of his life before and after his eventful run governing the Big Apple.
Nostalgia value is high here with numerous flashbacks to graffiti decorated subway cars, porn consumed Times Square, and Studio 54. There's also blackouts, transit strikes, racial tension, and public housing projects.
The film has a fast pace and mostly touches lightly on all facets of the Koch administration, positive and negative, making for an enjoyable, witty snack when it could have been a delicious filling meal.
