Reviews of My Work
"...Anyone who loves what Broadway used to be and can be again will find this DVD of... Walter Gottlieb's superb documentary a keeper..." - Dave Weigand
“Heart & Soul: The Life and Music of Frank Loesser
does its job well. After watching these 90 minutes,
sentient viewers will know a lot about Loesser’s career... The show would be worth watching just to see and hear star performances of Loesser’s trove of unforgettable Broadway and Hollywood songs.
- Anita Gates
"The Video Makers is both a fun and funny take on the non-fiction television business, a behind the scenes spoof of the industry and a clever statement on the current state of pop culture. Walter Gottlieb has proven that not only is he able to create documentaries for the worlds of PBS and National Geographic, but has a solid sense of humor in regards to the medium as well."
"Creator Walter J. Gottlieb has written a very clever script, and executed it beautifully. From the parody standpoint, the show is a big success. Even better though, it’s also just a really solid sitcom. The huge cast is full of fun, well-drawn, characters. The editing, the music, and the performances all come together."
"(Travel Channel's Time Traveling with Brian Unger) visits some of America’s most prominent places, taking visitors and viewers into a landscape where history is blended with modern graphics to reveal facts that have largely been known only to earlier generations."
"(Frank Loesser) authored dozens of movie hits before graduating to Broadway. He's also the subject of a toe-tappingly terrific new bio-doc, Heart & Soul: The Life and Music of Frank Loesser." - Richard Corliss
"Heart and Soul" tells the story of an extraordinary artist from his early days in Hollywood to his triumphs on Broadway to his eventual decline and untimely death at age 59. It's the story of a man once described as being 'his own Damon Runyon character."
