If only Di Giusto more ambitiously broadened her scope, she would have made a fleet-footed tribute for the ages instead of stumbling over such rich possibilities. Dec 1, 2017 | Rating: 2/4 | Full Review…

Evasions of fact render the project suspect, but the chance to observe Fuller's genius realized onstage almost redeems it. Nov 28, 2017 | Full Review…

This is a beautiful and intelligent film but the show-stealer is unquestionably Benoît Debie's cinematography, particularly during Fuller's on-stage dance routines. Mar 19, 2019 | Full Review…

[Fuller] was the toast of the Folies Bergères...and an inspiration for Toulouse-Lautrec and the Lumière Brothers, but we see little of this, which seems a missed opportunity to inject vivacity and colour into a rather dull and ploddingly constructed film. Feb 21, 2019 | Rating: 2/5 | Full Review…

By the end of the performance, she collapses from exhaustion. So may the viewer. It's an awe-inspiring spectacle, and it helps anchor what is too often a somewhat staid biopic. Dec 1, 2017 | Rating: 2.5/5 | Full Review…
