Movie Reviews

Spectrum Culture - 9/10 by Pat PaduaPreserves the memory of musicians who paid the ultimate price for making people dance.
Village Voice - 8/10 by Stephanie ZacharekDon't Think I've Forgotten is a testament to how much a song can mean: You can destroy the vinyl it's been recorded on, but the sound itself, and all it stands for, is indestructible. Groove is in the heart.
rec.arts.movies.reviews - 8/10 by Louis ProyectA brilliant combination of pop music history and geopolitical analysis. It arrives on VOD platforms (IMovie, Amazon, etc.) on August 4, 2015--not to be missed.
Washington Post - 8/10 by Michael O'SullivanWhat happened to almost an entire generation of musicians in Cambodia isn’t a scandal. As “Forgotten” makes powerfully, passionately clear, it’s a tragedy.
AV Club - 8/10 by Jason HellerAs expressionistic as it is journalistic, Don’t Think I’ve Forgotten triumphs as both an objective record and a poetic lament: It’s a film that’s every bit as entrancing and haunting as the lost music it celebrates.
New York Times - 8/10 by A.O. ScottMr. Pirozzi’s film is an unsparing and meticulous reckoning of the effects of tyranny on ordinary Cambodians. It is also a rich and defiant effort at recovery, showing that even the most murderous totalitarianism cannot fully erase the human drive for pleasure and self-expression.
The Public (Buffalo) - 7/10 by M. FaustWhat makes all of this poignant, and the reason that you've never heard of any of these musicians, is the events of the 1970s.
The Dissolve - 7/10 by Scott TobiasDon’t Think I’ve Forgotten could stand to be a tighter, punchier assemblage of music and talking heads, but Pirozzi has gathered an impressive array of surviving musicians and family members willing to talk about the targeting of artists for propaganda and death.
Austin Chronicle - 6/10 by Josh KupeckiJohn Pirozzi purportedly spent nine years gathering material for the project, and the film spotlights musicians and performers who would have been completely forgotten if not for this enterprise.
User Review - 10/10 by Brian YThis is a very well-done film/documentary about Cambodia's thriving music scene during the 1960's and 70's, and how the political events and war in the 1970's affected everything. I went in not knowing what to expect, I had only known of singer Sinn Sisamouth previously, and came out very impressed with the film. It was very insightful, meaningful to me, and it filled in a lot of gaps in my knowledge of Cambodian history, especially of the music scene and popular singers of that era. Very profound and well-made film!
