Hot to Trot (2018) 71% EDIT “The cameras caress landscapes, skylines, domesticity, and sequined dancers with equal fervor, but one longs for more of what a competition official calls "a vertical expression of a horizontal desire."” – Village Voice Aug 22, 2018 Full Review The Dancer (2016) 59% EDIT “Evasions of fact render the project suspect, but the chance to observe Fuller's genius realized onstage almost redeems it.” – Village Voice Nov 29, 2017 Full Review Rebels on Pointe (2017) 100% EDIT “Serious balletomanes will find much to appreciate here; people who delight in seeing the form lampooned will find more.” – Village Voice Nov 15, 2017 Full Review Bobbi Jene (2017) 64% EDIT “Bobbi Jene gives you a taste of how a choreographer works, but mainly registers how she feels.” – Village Voice Sep 20, 2017 Full Review Polina (2016) 85% EDIT “In its quiet way Polina is a gender-reversed, fictional version of last year's Dancer.” – Village Voice Aug 25, 2017 Full Review Mr. Gaga (2015) 87% EDIT “Interweaves archival film with contemporary material to masterfully portray one of the most vital dance artists of the past half-century.” – Village Voice Jan 25, 2017 Full Review Dancer (2016) 88% EDIT “If rags-to-riches-to-rags tales like this one appeal to you, go watch Polunin, not this clip-job of a movie, and draw your own conclusions.” – Village Voice Sep 15, 2016 Full Review Argentina (2015) 70% EDIT “Carlos Saura's Argentina is really a concert film, unique in that the only spectator is the camera.” – Village Voice Jun 15, 2016 Full Review Naked in Ashes (2005) 56% EDIT “Christopher Tufty's camera captures intimate detail and broad panorama, a television in a hut and 100,000 naked guys bathing in the Ganges at Ujjain, a festival that happens every 12 years.” – Village Voice Nov 15, 2005 Full Review Ghostlight (2003) 63% EDIT “Real history and raunch poke through, but the thirtysomething Move is too vital to be Martha in her dotage.” – Village Voice Jun 22, 2004 Full Review Anything but Love (2002) 33% EDIT “If this is such a cheesy, derivative movie, why did I watch it twice with such delight?” – Village Voice Nov 11, 2003 Full Review Kalpana (1948) EDIT “A remarkable accomplishment in any era, this 154-minute film must have staggered viewers when it appeared in 1948.” – Village Voice May 6, 2003 Full Review Étoiles: Dancers of the Paris Opera Ballet (2001) 62% EDIT “Among the many pleasures are the lively intelligence of the artists and their perceptiveness about their own situations.” – Village Voice Nov 5, 2002 Full Review Ayurveda: The Art of Being (2001) 57% EDIT “Unspools like a highbrow, low-key, 102-minute infomercial, blending entrepreneurial zeal with the testimony of satisfied customers.” – Village Voice Jul 16, 2002 Full Review Tosca (2001) 67% EDIT “Two hours fly by -- opera's a pleasure when you don't have to endure intermissions -- and even a novice to the form comes away exhilarated.” – Village Voice Jul 11, 2002 Full Review Last Dance (2002) 80% EDIT “Riveting when it focuses on the challenges of crossing a generational divide.” – Village Voice Jul 11, 2002 Full Review The Diaries of Vaslav Nijinsky (2001) 60% EDIT “A real snooze.” – Village Voice May 28, 2002 Full Review Sia, the Dream of the Python (2001) 60% EDIT “The subtitled costume drama is set in a remote African empire before cell phones, guns, and the internal combustion engine, but the politics that thump through it are as timely as tomorrow.” – Village Voice May 21, 2002 Full Review Center Stage (2000) 42% EDIT “Nicholas Hytner's movie might be subtitled Beverly Hills 90210 Goes to Juilliard.” – Village Voice Jan 1, 2000 Full Review
