Leave your thoughts about Seduced and Abandoned.
| San Francisco ChronicleDavid WiegandThe fact that it is so funny eventually becomes strangely sad, which makes the film thoroughly enjoyable but also irresistibly provocative. |
| The AustralianDavid StrattonSeduced and Abandoned is, if nothing else, a film buff's delight. |
| Contactmusic.comRich ClineAnyone interested in how movies get made will love this feisty behind-the-scenes documentary, which uses sharp comedy to explore the messy business side of cinema. |
| ViewLondonMatthew TurnerExplores the present-day realities of film financing and offers insightful comments on the film industry in general, as well as a meditation on the power of cinema and death itself. |
| Time OutDave CalhounBaldwin and Toback make a snappy comic duo, and half of their talks with a line-up of luminaries focus on the art of filmmaking rather than the business. |
| Total FilmJames MottramMaverick director James Toback (Fingers) and Alec Baldwin front this frequently hilarious insider doc. |
| Daily Telegraph (UK)Robbie CollinIt's a spikily funny, endlessly enlightening watch. |
| Ultra CultureCharlie LyneIf Toback and Baldwin set out to prove that nobody is making good movies any more, then this utterly inept piece of filmmaking should prove just the ticket. |
| The SpectatorDeborah RossThe film is funny, and sad, and insightful if you've no idea what a movie deal looks like, which I hadn't. |
| Sunday Times (UK)Camilla LongSeduced and Abandoned isn't a deeply intellectual film, but it is a wry and dry road trip that's worth a watch, at least for the pleasure of Baldwin playing the role he was born to play, Alec Baldwin. |
