Ronnie Scheib Variety 09/22/2014
This curiously intimate documentary about artist Altina Schinasi, as told through her myriad marriages, engrosses in its own fittingly slapdash way. Go to Full Review Gary Goldstein Los Angeles Times 09/18/2014
An absorbing look at wealth, privilege, creativity and progressive thinking. Go to Full Review Anita Gates New York Times 09/11/2014
To Ms. Schinasi's credit, two of her husbands break down in tears on camera while talking about her, and the other two are dead. Go to Full Review Louis Proyect rec.arts.movies.reviews 09/13/2014
Altina Schinasi was like Peggy Guggenheim-a member of the Jewish haut bourgeoisie who opted for a bohemian life in the arts. Jewish cultural history of a key but neglected figure. Go to Full Review David Noh Film Journal International 09/12/2014
It was an amazing life, but surprisingly, it does not register excitingly on film. The approach is uninspired and prosaic, too much the work of a dutiful family member than intensely probing and revelatory. Go to Full Review Read all reviews
