This is a fascinating contrast of the very different careers of the two men and American culture through the most prolific decades of their work. It's not the world's greatest documentary; it has its flaws. Still, I found it incredibly ambitious in scope, and impressed with the extant to how, albeit unevenly, the documentary managed both to successfully shine light on how the work of these iconic actors reflected the polars of American culture, and how in turn American culture shaped the lives of the men themselves.
For me, it earns its 10 for that ambition and extent of success. Give it a whirl. You will not see a Hollywood history documentary quite like this one.
