As soon as Guest of Cindy Sherman ended, I wanted to see it again for its high entertainment value and to determine better what I had just witnessed.

Consensus: The filmmakers' motivations may be suspect, but this inside look at New York art legend Cindy Sherman -- and, by extension, the culture she inhabits -- is undeniably satisfying.
Theatrical Release:Mar 27, 2009 Limited
Synopsis: Cindy Sherman's UNTITLED FILM STILLS, a running cliche of fake celebrity photos, were a hallmark of 1970s and '80s art, propelling Sherman into the top tier of the New York City art world. But what... [More]
Reviews for Guest of Cindy Sherman
Top CriticPaul H-O's hurt feelings over being the overlooked man in a relationship with a famous woman, are surely familiar and not especially provocative.

Instantly recognizable as a guy you might have gone to college with, co-director and documentary subject, Paul H-O's personal experience, as host for a self-produced cable television art program called "Gallery Beat," speaks volumes about New York's eliti

Cindy Sherman has disavowed this documentary, but the film proves to be a very satisfying cinematic collaboration between the art star, her art world insider ex and his huge cache of fascinating footage, and a story-shaping docs director with excellent ed

Guest's focus on Sherman and her work is [the film's] strength, providing an in-depth and revealing glimpse of one of the most celebrated artists in the world,

Remove the boldface names and there’s no movie; that center does not hold.

Top CriticA moderately compelling and humorous documentary that leaves you wanting more revealing insight into the life and career of Cindy Sherman.
03/29/09
Guest of Cindy Sherman would be fun to watch on public access some late night. But as a big-screen attraction, it never measures up.
03/27/09
Top CriticAt once a fascinating behind-the-scenes glimpse, bittersweet autobiography and witty trip down art-world memory lane.
03/27/09
Top CriticIt’s amazing that in an era of oversharing and reality TV, a doc consisting mostly of cable TV clips and personal reminiscences can be so resonant.
03/26/09
Top CriticIt’s a documentary about a wannabe celebrity and the internationally famous artist who almost makes his dreams come true. And like Sherman’s subjects, it’s all surface.
03/26/09
The definitive study of the contemporary art world that Eric Bogosian, one of the movie's interviewees, calls "complete bullshit". Also a poignant study of a love story compromised by unequal power and celebrity. Not to be missed!
03/26/09
This skillfully made documentary by a spurned lover of the wildly successful photographer Cindy Sherman carries the deadening taint of exploitation and self-promotion.

Paul H-O might have exposed “dealers” who were agents, publicists, protectors -- the real movers and shakers of the culture industry -- but his romantic wounds get in the way.

Absorbing yet lacking.

A highly entertaining evisceration and celebration of the milieu.

Top CriticAn entertainingly quirky little film.
