Reviews

Deborah Allison has grasped [Winterbottom's] distinctive modus operandi, which no other filmmaker would dare imitate, or could afford to. Her tour of Winterbottom's glorious ups and occasional downs, a mid-career assessment, confirms Winterbottom's place as the most versatile and prolific director of his generation. The reader can decide whether Winterbottom's determination to take on so many varied challenges is courageous or crazy, or both. -- David D'Arcy, Screen International
