"Jacob Bernstein's lovingly critical examination of his mother, Nora Ephron … the film and publishing roster assembled to salute her accomplishments—book by book, film by film, husband by husband—couldn't be better curated." – The Independent

A beloved essayist, novelist and filmmaker, Nora Ephron was an editorial polymath whose scathingly witty, confessional and poison-fuelled pen embodied the most vivacious and bitchy elements of New York culture.

Taking its title from the mantra that she inherited from her mother, Everything is Copy paints an effervescent yet brutally honest portrait of Ephron through interviews with her family, ex-husbands and high-profile collaborators such as Meryl Streep, Tom Hanks and Steven Spielberg. From tales of her gossip-laden public life to the intimate moments spent on her deathbed, this is a heartfelt eulogy that celebrates one of the bravest, most ruthless and invigorating women of our time.

"Bursting with so many fond and famous faces that you can imagine its subject swooning with delight, and then criticizing their makeup." – New York Times
