Amazon.com Review:
With a standout
performance by James Woods, Rudy: The Rudolph Giuliani
Story is a warts-and-all portrait of New York City's
lame-duck mayor, who rose from political disfavor to
unexpected heights of heroism and leadership in the wake
of September 11, 2001. Originally broadcast on the USA
Network and based on Wayne Barrett's muckraking
biography, it's a condensed, Cliff's Notes rendition of
Giuliani's political career, with each commercial break
serving as a chapter stop, beginning on the eve of 9/11
and alternating past and present highlights from
Giuliani's rise to power. The film offers an unflinching
portrait of a devoted public servant who's as fallible
as he is competent: his wife (Penelope Ann Miller)
understandably suffers while extramarital affairs and
political fearlessness are all seen as byproducts of
Giuliani's compulsion to improve the city he loves.
