Mike Wallace interviewed the Ayatollah Khomeini in 1979 in the middle of the Tehran hostage crisis. He put tough questions to Donald Trump as early as 1985 and he had Barbra Streisand tell him: “You’re a son of a bitch.” In 2012 the journalist legend died at the age of 93, after almost 70 years of reporting. Avi Belkin's documentary completely relies on the great archive material by and of Wallace. This portrait does not shirk depression and marital problems, but still honours the brilliant interviewer that was Mike Wallace.
