The personal and professional friendship between filmmakers James Benning and Richard Linklater.

John Hartl

Seattle Times

Above all else, "Double Play" is an invitation to stare - usually at an object that's worthy of prolonged attention.

Rated: 3/4

Nicolas Rapold

New York Times

The graceful flow avoids the spoon-feeding of pocket biographies, and even if the material can feel lean at times, Mr. Klinger shepherds along a valuable encounter with a sense of easy, generally uncanned observation.

Steve Macfarlane

Slant Magazine

Between their wildly different bodies of work, a shared appeal emerges: to stop, look, listen, and consider not just what's in front of you, but also where it came from and where it might be going.

Rated: 3.5/4
