Glenn Kenny New York Times The revelation of Andersson's method, his painstaking use of trompe l'oeil both painterly and cinematic, is fascinating enough. But the chronicle takes an unexpected turn. Jul 1, 2021 Full Review Wendy Ide Observer (UK) [A] terrific, unexpectedly moving documentary... Rated: 4/5 Oct 19, 2020 Full Review Philip De Semlyen Time Out A film about filmmaking to stand alongside Hearts of Darkness and Burden of Dreams, this portrait of one-of-a-kind Swedish director Roy Andersson offers a generous, honest, insightful and at times rather sad glimpse of the man at work. Rated: 4/5 Oct 16, 2020 Full Review Chris Knight National Post Watch Being a Human Person if you've seen and enjoyed any of Andersson's work, for a look at the mind behind their particular genius. Or watch it if you haven't seen his work at all. Rated: 4/5 Jan 21, 2022 Full Review Avi Offer NYC Movie Guru Fascinating and candid. It shows Andersson's intelligence, charisma and his vulnerability. show his intelligence, charisma and his vulnerability. He's brilliant, sensitive, funny, fragile and strong all at once. In other words, he's human. Rated: 9/10 Jul 8, 2021 Full Review Daniel Gorman In Review Online If it is, in the end, impossible to get at the true heart of Andersson, Scott at least does an admirable job presenting a multiplicity of perspectives, each a facet of this curious man.
