The Most Dangerous Man in America: Daniel Ellsberg and the Pentagon Papers is a documentary about the titular man who leaked the titular papers during the Vietnam War, and the controversy and legal battle that ensued. The Onion's Nathan Rabin says, "It’s a fascinating story, but in Judith Ehrlich and Rick Goldsmith’s frustratingly conventional [film], it doesn’t always make for a fascinating documentary... In spite of the dry telling, 'Dangerous Man' develops a cumulative power as Ellsberg risks everything for a cause he believes in. 'Dangerous Man' does a serviceable job of mapping out the particulars of his struggle, but the definitive cinematic version of his too-strange-for-fiction story has yet to be made."
