    The Audition (2009)

    " As Froemke trails these singers through their preparations and to their final appearances, she assembles some appealing portraiture but not much drama. The mood here is far more genteel and collegial than in many a competition documentary."

    Note by Note: The Making of the Steinway L1037 (2007)

    " Like an elegant set of theme and variations, director Ben Niles' beautiful, probing documentary about music and craftsmanship takes a simple idea and follows it in a number of directions."

    Silk (2007)

    " The main problem is the casting, with Michael Pitt and Keira Knightley evidently competing to see who can be more attractive and vacuous."

    Music From the Inside Out (2004)

    " The composite picture it offers of the performing life is still unforgettable."

    Touch the Sound (2006)

    " There is a maddening sense of dislocation through much of the movie -- a feeling that genuinely fascinating questions have been squeezed out by woo-woo philosophizing and material (like Glennie's brief return to the family farm) of only minor import."

    Rick (2003)

    " By hewing so faithfully to their source, the creators don't let the material pursue its own direction, and the result feels dramatically arbitrary."

    John Adams - The Death of Klinghoffer (1991)

    " Sellars' original staging was a stylized, almost pageant-like affair, which allowed the creators to claim descent for the piece from Bach's Passions. Without that fig leaf, the ugliness at the heart of the work ... becomes all the more apparent."

    The Turandot Project (2001)

    " Presumably there's an interesting yarn buried in the project, but Allan Miller's drab, diffuse documentary never quite locates it."

    Bride of the Wind (2001)

    " Levy's bloodless screenplay runs dutifully through Alma's life as though ticking off the points against a checklist."
