Despite Bourgeois's on-camera effusiveness, this film suffers a little from curtailing much background information; but fans of Bourgeois as a personality will find a lot to like here. May 22, 2009 | Rating: 2/5 | Full Review…

Marion Cajori makes a brave attempt to grapple with a subject who resists explanation; while she may not always succeed, the journey is frequently illuminating. May 22, 2009 | Rating: 4/5 | Full Review…

Frequently roving around and taking awe at Bourgeois's massive artwork, the filmmakers may understand the artist as a woman and a living creature but they often treat her as if she herself were a museum piece. Jun 25, 2008 | Rating: 2/4 | Full Review…
