Critic Reviews for Valentino's Ghost

All Critics (3) | Top Critics (3) | Fresh (3)

It's a provocative, absorbing -- and at times dicey -- study.

Gary Goldstein
Los Angeles Times
You may not agree with every observation in Michael Singh's documentary "Valentino's Ghost." But this engrossing examination of American perceptions of Arabs and the Arab world gets you thinking.

Andy Webster
New York Times
A crash course in history, politics, and social science, Valentino's Ghost is both sobering and illuminating, and its execution is thrilling.
