Dmitry Samarov Chicago Reader As such, it’s a serviceable introduction that might inspire a visit to a couture dress shop over one to a museum. Apr 20, 2024 Full Review Andrew Pulver Guardian Whatever the swirl of disagreement over the show, the film as a whole, delivered with Exhibition on Screen’s customary level of polish, does a good job of sprucing up the experience. Rated: 3/5 Apr 15, 2024 Full Review Steven Prokopy Third Coast Review Even those not curious about fashion or art history will find Sargent’s story fascinating, with him quite often being at the center of the fashion world, scandal, and high society—sometimes all at once. Rated: 3/4 Apr 27, 2024 Full Review Jennie Kermode Eye for Film Rich and informationally dense, like all Exhibition On Screen’s work. It carefully situates Sargent’s art in context, explaining key concepts for newcomers with sufficient wit and insight that others need not worry about finding themselves bored. Rated: 4.5/5 Apr 19, 2024 Full Review Read all reviews
