Reviews for Lumiere & Company
Even the gamest of viewers will want to indulge her nostalgia judiciously, to avoid getting sour on the narcissism of the exercise.
The 40 brief films are often wonderful, and always revealing in the way they show professional directors working on what amounts to a haiku.
