Movie Reviews

San Francisco Chronicle - 8/10 by Leba HertzA charming and entertaining movie that instills a little fantasy into the mix.
The Nation - 8/10 by Stuart KlawansIt's wonderful what they've done with a few gauze curtains, some candles, a bunch of funny subtitles and a lot of inventiveness.
New York Times - 8/10 by A.O. ScottSprawling and sometimes confusing, but its premise is charming and not at all far-fetched.
Los Angeles Times - 7/10 by Sheri LindenThe performances are uneven, but there's a grimy thrill to seeing scenes from the play in subway cars and on fire escapes.
rec.arts.movies.reviews - 5/10 by Louis ProyectThe writer-director has bitten off a bit more than she can chew but this is a must-see for anybody who loves the sound of Yiddish, as well as those interested in Jewish culture in general. The young actors, renegades from the Satmar, are superb.
New York Daily News - 4/10 by Elizabeth WeitzmanBut oy, such terrible jokes and choppy direction. Would it have killed her to share the credits with someone else?
Village Voice - 4/10 by J. HobermanAnnenberg's attitudinous Shakespeare riff is a unique blend of psychodrama, ethnographic experimentation, and high-concept hustle.
