Reception

Owen Gleiberman of Variety wrote, "How to Come Alive with Norman Mailer holds surprises even for Mailer fans. Yet as much as Mailer, with his braggadocio and heady male swagger, may not seem like he fits snugly into this day and age, I strongly suspect that if you're a young person who's a reader and you've never read a word that Norman Mailer wrote and you saw this movie, you'd be looking up one of his volumes within a day."
It was the recipient of the Best Documentary Feature Award at the 2024 Atlanta Jewish Film Festival.
