Entertainment Reviews:
Rating: B --
With each passing essay extract, snippet of dialogue, or moment of clarity, the reasoning for a film about her beyond mere familial love and celebrity duty is proven.

A son's post humous gift to his mother - and often a fascinating one.

As tributes go, Everything Is Copy is as loving and as well-behaved as you might expect of a doc directed by its subject's son - journalist Jacob Bernstein - to be.

San Francisco Chronicle
A wonderfully insightful chronicle of a woman, her family, the influence of a writer-mother, and her approach to essays, film and life.

Denver Post
In a way, we've never needed Nora Ephron more, but, as Everything is Copy is sure to remind you, we'll never stop needing her, period.

Tribeca Film
Jacob Bernstein's documentary about his mother is thus a chance to linger over and re-enjoy Ms. Ephron's insights, which so often created happiness and then ended with her death at 71 from leukemia in 2012.

Description by OLDIES.com:
Everything Is Copy profiles the life of Nora Ephron, the writer/director who was known for her acerbic wit and whose films include such cultural touchstones as Silkwood, When Harry Met Sally, and Sleepless in Seattle. Written and directed by her son, Jacob Bernstein, the film is Bernstein's personal investigation into his mother's favorite motto, "Everything is copy" - a philosophy that all that happens in life, good and bad, is fodder for comedy. The film charts Ephron's career, starting from an early stint as a reporter for the New York Post to regular columnist for Esquire, The New York Times and Cosmopolitan; her rise to become one of Hollywood's most sought-after writer/directors; her high-profile relationships with celebrities in Hollywood and in the literary world; and, in her later years, her diagnosis of myelodysplastic syndrome - an illness she kept largely a secret until her death in 2012.
