"...The film's playful and more heartfelt aspects are fused in mournfully beautiful imagery..." New York Times "...An immaculately lensed, intellectual jape....Always visually alert..." Variety "...Jarman has passed through the soul of his first master, Ken Russell, to a cinematic 'other side' where his work has the ethereal potency of unstressed metaphor..." Film Comment "[T]his is Jarman in playful and provocative groove....You can't help but be heartened by the way Jarman ignores the conventions of film biopics."Sight and Sound0.2465951

"With an appropriately workmanlike method, Normand moves through the Ballet Academy's audition process, following the students' transformations into prima ballerinas."Box Office "[A]t the highest level of the profession, the unvarnished reality of a dancer's life contains plenty of genuine theater, as proved in Bertrand Normand's jewel of a documentary, BALLERINA."Washington Post "[A] beautiful snapshot of ballet life, Russian style, and a tribute to five particular ballerinas..."Los Angeles Times11.14982

"...Engrossing....At once intimate drama and stirring historical epic, the film is loaded with suspense....[A] richly detailed and shrewdly observed account of grace under pressure..." Los Angeles Times "...Tavernier shows us, in more ways than one, that le cinema de qualite lives on..." Sight and Sound "...Tavernier takes great delight in moments of high drama and in abstraction..." Film Comment "...A moving tribute to the ingenuity and courage of those real-life film-makers to whom LAISSEZ-PASSER is dedicated..."Total Film "...Tavernier is interested in his characters not in terms of the cinema they produced but because of the conditions they survived, and the decisions they made....What Tavernier does here is celebrate filmmakers who did the best they could under the circumstances...."
