Tim Appelo of “AARP Movies for Grownups” says, “Immortal folkie Lightfoot, 81, the author of classics such as ‘Carefree Highway’ and ‘Sundown,’ shows the wisdom of age in this must-see documentary.” Ken Eisner of “Georgia Straight” writes, “This brisk new doc on Canada's singer laureate doesn't really get you any closer to Gordon Lightfoot than his songs will take you. But the performer has put himself and whatever meaning he has into his work, and that really is enough.”
