Rabin's consistent, thoughtful self-criticism and colorful storytelling animate what might otherwise be a pat, or at least familiar, history of Israel in the 20th century. By making it specific, Laufer makes it new.

Critics on Rotten Tomatoes
Top critics, in their words
"In His Own Words" is a deeply involving look at the man's entire life, using archival footage, home movies, private letters but most of all filmed interviews Rabin gave, to let us hear him tell his own story just about from cradle to grave.
This documentary, consisting almost entirely of his recollections in his own voice, does a pretty good job of outlining his life and his terribly dangerous times.
