It isn\u2019t an action-packed movie where you\u2019ll be glued to your seat, but it is a wonderful story about two of the most important people in our literary community \u2013 Robert Caro and Robert&nbsp;Gottlieb.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Robert Caro is a Pulitzer Prize-winning American author best known for his biographies of President Lyndon B. Johnson and New York political figure Robert Moses. &nbsp;Robert Gottlieb is an American editor who has been editor-in-chief of&nbsp;Simon &amp; Schuster,&nbsp;Alfred A. Knopf, and&nbsp;<em>The New Yorker<\/em>. &nbsp;Caro and Gottlieb have worked together for more than 50 years.&nbsp;Documentarian Lizzy Gottlieb, Robert Gottlieb\u2019s daughter, spent five years on the film and gives us an up close and very personal view of each of these amazing men, their work, their passion for their work and their working relationship.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"alignleft size-medium is-resized\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.kidsfirst.org\/kidsfirstnews\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/turneverypage.d.jpg?resize=225%2C152&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-10571\" width=\"225\" height=\"152\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.kidsfirst.org\/kidsfirstnews\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/turneverypage.d.jpg?resize=300%2C203&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.kidsfirst.org\/kidsfirstnews\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/turneverypage.d.jpg?w=710&amp;ssl=1 710w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 225px) 100vw, 225px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p>I found this documentary so interesting because it balances entertainment, humor&nbsp;and education. I like that this documentary teaches us about many people that no one truly knows about, especially those from my generation. I learned so much about the power and influence Robert Moses&nbsp;held in New York City and the power and influence President Johnson wielded during his political career. &nbsp;Their impact is so deep and wide and yet so different. &nbsp;And this is also true about Robert Caro and Robert Gottlieb, as they contributed so much to American literature working together and also are very different. &nbsp;They have such a passion for what they do\u2014they even \u2018go to war\u2019&nbsp;over commas and semicolons. <\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"alignright size-medium is-resized\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.kidsfirst.org\/kidsfirstnews\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/turneverypage.b.jpg?resize=225%2C152&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-10573\" width=\"225\" height=\"152\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.kidsfirst.org\/kidsfirstnews\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/turneverypage.b.jpg?resize=300%2C203&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.kidsfirst.org\/kidsfirstnews\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/turneverypage.b.jpg?w=710&amp;ssl=1 710w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 225px) 100vw, 225px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p>One of my favorite lines from the movie is from Robert Gottlieb, \u201cHe does the work. &nbsp;I do the cleanup.\u201d This movie also shows what goes on behind the scenes of writing a book. There is so much that goes into it, and it\u2019s enlightening to know what that is. Watching this documentary may even inspire you to read <em>The Power Broker<\/em> about Robert Moses or the Lyndon Johnson biography series.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The message&nbsp;and purpose of this documentary is to highlight the shared&nbsp;dedication and working&nbsp;relationship&nbsp;of these two literary men. There is some language that might be offensive to some.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I&nbsp;give&nbsp;<em>Turn Every Page \u2013 The Adventures of Robert Caro and Robert Gottlieb<\/em>&nbsp;5&nbsp;out of 5 stars and recommend it for ages 12&nbsp;to 18,&nbsp;but especially&nbsp;adults.&nbsp;The film is playing now in select cities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<span class=\"embed-youtube\" style=\"text-align:center; display: block;\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" class=\"youtube-player\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/1qEceEerUY8?version=3&#038;rel=1&#038;showsearch=0&#038;showinfo=1&#038;iv_load_policy=1&#038;fs=1&#038;hl=en-US&#038;autohide=2&#038;wmode=transparent\" allowfullscreen=\"true\" style=\"border:0;\" sandbox=\"allow-scripts allow-same-origin allow-popups allow-presentation allow-popups-to-escape-sandbox\"><\/iframe><\/span>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Follows the iconic Pulitzer Prize-winning author Robert Caro and his editor, the literary giant Robert Gottlieb, in this chronicle of a unique 50-year professional relationship.
