Minneapolis Jewish Film Festival presents: Best of the Fest - Where I Stand: The Hank Greenspun Story

Director: Scott Goldstein
USA, 2008
English
Documentary, 98 min.

Audience Award, Los Angeles Jewish Film Festival, 2010

Convicted gun runner, Las Vegas visionary, crusading newspaper publisher, target of the Watergate burglars, hero of Israel’s War of Independence...these are only some the highlights of Hank Greenspun's remarkable life. From his early days working for Bugsy Siegel and his secret life in the underground Haganah to his public battles with Senator Joseph McCarthy, bigoted casino owners and the IRS, Hank Greenspun was fearless. Narrated by Anthony Hopkins, the film is a previously untold story of a genuine American hero.
