“…a concise and moving story… it needs to be told to every generation.” - New York Times

“…historically striking and fast-paced…I kept asking myself, “Why don’t I know about this?” - Eugene Weekly

“…a touching homage to three working-class men who played an underappreciated role in every major social movement during 40 years of American history.” - Washington City Paper

“…nothing speaks to us greater than the role of the unsung hero…Brothers On The Line will leave you feeling inspired.” - The Film Yap

“A time when a handsome, eloquent working-class leader—flanked by his indefatigable younger brothers—could go toe-to-toe with the bosses publicly and win on a regular basis, seems today more like fantasy than history. For that reason alone, Brothers On The Line deserves a wide audience.” - Dissent Magazine

“…unabashedly truthful… a clarion call to all workers from whatever class they think they’re from to decide which side they’re on.” - Ron Verzuh, labor historian

“This film is brilliant…a remarkable piece of history as well as a cautionary tale for our times.” -Thom Hartmann, The Big Picture
