Leave your thoughts about The Mill and the Cross.
| Boston GlobeWesley MorrisThe Mill and the Cross captures the wish that some of us have had while standing in front of a great painting. What hangs before us is so striking, beautiful, strange, vast, horrifying, ethereal, lifelike - so alive - that we're desperate to enter the other side of the canvas, to be inside the painting. |
| Chicago Sun-TimesRoger EbertHere is a film of great beauty and attention, and watching it is a form of meditation. Sometimes films take a great stride outside the narrow space of narrative tradition and present us with things to think about. Here mostly what I thought was, why must man sometimes be so cruel? |
| Boxoffice MagazinePam GradyAn investigation into Pieter Bruegel the Elder's painting "The Way to Calvary," Majewski's film is a stunning piece of art in its own right. |
| House Next DoorFernando F. CroceMajewski's superficially striking ruminations on art feel academic. |
| Christianity TodaySteven D. GreydanusAndré Bazin wrote about the mission of art to rescue the world from transience and corruption … I don't know if I've ever seen this idea more resoundingly affirmed. |
| The A.V. ClubAlison WillmoreWhile it's far from easy going, The Mill And The Cross is worth attempting for its stunning visuals alone. |
| Commercial Appeal (Memphis, TN)John BeifussBoth painting and film are brought to vivid, extraordinary life by the power of the artist's will: This is Intelligent Design we can believe in. |
| Film School RejectsLandon Palmer'The Mill and the Cross' is a fully aware and intentionally engaged with artifice and its process. Why then, is its very artificiality so off-putting? |
| ReelTalk Movie ReviewsDonald J. LevitRenaissance man composer-librettist-painter-poet-novelist-cameraman-screenwriter-filmmaker Lech Majewski ingeniously melds several of his fields in 'The Mill and the Cross.' |
| Reeling ReviewsLaura Clifford.. the filmmaker follows twelve of the painting's hundreds of people to impart a historical understanding of how Bruegel condemned Spain's religious persecution in his native Holland by making his Christ contemporary. |
