Reception

Owen Gleiberman of Variety wrote, "If you're a fan of The New Yorker and want a backstage tour of how the supremely refined sausage gets made, The New Yorker at 100 draws back the curtain in an enchanting way." [4]

Daniel Fienberg of The Hollywood Reporter wrote that the film "is a commercial for The New Yorker and it isn't masquerading as anything else. But at that point, it should at least be a commercial for the magazine that befits the voice, aesthetic and ethos of the magazine in a meaningful way. This film's approach would have been entertaining and justifiably pithy for more magazines than I can count. It just feels wrong for The New Yorker." [3]
