Movie Reviews

AALBC.com - 10/10 by Kam WilliamsModern dance appreciated as a sacred endeavor enabling one to fly above the fray, if not literally, vicariously, at the very least.
Village Voice - 7/10 by Michelle OrangeIt's all pretty loose and formless, but there's enough discipline on display to thrill lovers of movement, whether amateur or advanced.
Los Angeles Times - 6/10 by Gary GoldsteinFor lovers of dance, "Never Stand Still" should prove a fleet, enjoyable excursion.
Boston Phoenix - 6/10 by Cassandra LandryThe historical footage of Jacob's Pillow is fascinating, and if you've ever slogged through an hours-long tech rehearsal, look no further for your comrades-in-arms.
Film Journal International - 5/10 by Marsha McCreadieA witty, visual demonstration of the wild muscularity of contemporary dance--and why we no longer giggle at "men in tights."
The New York Times - 5/10 by David DeWittThis film has the everyday vibe of a bunch of friends putting together a summer camp video. Gosh, the substance of Jacob's Pillow should be a little less sleepy.
Time Out - 4/10 by David FearRon Honsa's PBS-appropriate doc pays lip service to the utopian space's history, and features (too-)brief snippets of performances and modern-dance legends - Merce Cunningham, Mark Morris, Suzanne Farrell - praising the landmark.
