“Whimsical and melancholic, playful and heavy as a heart swollen with emotion.” – Manohla Dargis, The New York Times "A movie in the moment that suggests the director was as free as his characters wished to be." - Steve Dollar, The New York Sun "Radiates joy of cinema." - J. Hoberman, The Village Voice “Unmissable ... [a] staggeringly gorgeous new 35mm print.” – Melissa Anderson, Time Out New York "[Its] power to overwhelm and offend is undiminished." - Anthony Lane, The New Yorker "Dazzling ... could just as easily be unfolding now instead of 42 years ago." - Kevin Thomas, The Los Angeles Times "Endlessly charming and entertaining." - Andy Klein, Los Angeles City Beat "A delirious concoction." - Felicia Feaster, Creative Loafing Atlanta "Like a cool breeze carrying the scent of a distant paradise." - Joe Williams, St. Louis Post-Dispatch "Liberating in its willful messiness, this 1965 whirligig makes everything else in theaters now seem 40 years older." - Jim Ridley, Nashville Scene “For pure entertainment and unabashed love of cinema, 1965’s Pierrot le fou is Jean-Luc Godard’s finest hour.” – John Monaghan, Detroit Free Press |
