After The Wedding (2007) |
"Director Susanne Bier is obviously fond of extreme close-ups (people smoking, people drinking, people licking their lips), especially focusing the camera on the actors' eyeballs too many times to count. I can overlook this annoying little technique becaus" |

American Teen (2008) |
"Burstein somehow manages to capture the ups/downs, pains/pleasures, and general angst of high school life when her subjects knew they were on camera!" |

American Teen (2008) |
"At times it feels as though we're watching a scripted movie with paid actors instead of "real" kids, but that doesn't prevent the audience from becoming emotionally invested in each of their plights." |

Art School Confidential (2006) |
