      Ben Sachs Chicago Reader Dismayingly shallow, this 2015 documentary about Italian writer-director Lina Wertmüller fails to address what makes her work so controversial-or, for that matter, virtually anything beyond why her friends and collaborators like her. May 4, 2017 Full Review Owen Gleiberman Variety There was a time when audiences lined up around city blocks to see the movies of Lina Wertmüller. "Behind the White Glasses" lets you revisit a bit of that passion, without quite nailing what it was. Apr 20, 2017 Full Review Ben Kenigsberg New York Times The movie treats Ms. Wertmüller's poorly received post-1970s career with kid gloves. Apr 20, 2017 Full Review M. Faust The Public (Buffalo) There's plenty of information about the making of [Lina Wertmuller's] movies, including interviews with her stars Giancarlo Giannini and Mariangela Melato. Jan 30, 2018 Full Review Chris Barsanti Film Journal International Behind the White Glasses is sketchy as biography but still a fun and jumpy ode to brazenly unbound and cross-disciplinary artistry. Apr 19, 2017 Full Review Diego Batlle Otroscines.com It has everything that a Wertmüller's fan can expect. [Full review in Spanish] Rated: 4.5/5 Aug 18, 2016 Full Review Read all reviews
