97% Sweetgrass (2009) Strange to relate that one of the year's most striking cinematic experiences so far is a documentary starring 3,000 sheep. - Sight and Sound EDIT

43% Janice Beard 45 wpm (2002) On the whole Janice herself is an endearing, eccentric creation but the film lacks the sharpness that might capture the public's imagination as Billy Liar did back in the early 60s. - Sight and Sound EDIT
