Williamson, thank goodness, tries something different - a look at the life of Mr Murdoch, done in a cabaret style. It skips by - it's a greatest hits account of Murdoch's life and Williamson isn't didactic - Rupert comes out of it well, a greedy, idealistic buccaneer.
Fun cameos from people like Frank Packer. It skims the surface rather than really examines its subject. The research feels like having read a few books and it might have had more impact had it dealt with Murdoch's relationships a bit closer.
But it is great to see Williamson push himself for a change.
