What does it mean, to go to the movies? Why have people been going for over one hundred years? I set out to celebrate movie theaters and their manifold magic. So I walked in the footsteps of young Paul Dédalus, as if in a filmgoer's coming-of-age story. Memories, fiction, discoveries come together in an irrepressible torrent of pictures.

May 29, 2024 Full Review Isaac Feldberg RogerEbert.com Desplechin effortlessly shifts through layers of fiction and reality in order to explore the fluidity with which great filmmaking, and our experience of it, blurs boundaries between the two. May 27, 2024 Full Review Sheri Linden Hollywood Reporter Filmlovers! is no theory-laden yakfest; it’s a personal walk through the charged territory of a life’s movie-loving story. May 24, 2024 Full Review Àngel Quintana Caimán Cuadernos de Cine An essay film divided into different chapters that discuss the spectacular nature of cinema. [Full review in Spanish] Jul 27, 2024 Full Review Max Borg Next Best Picture But, at the end of the day, it gets the job done: inspiring a desire to step into the nearest theater for another serving of big-screen delight. Rated: 7/10 Jun 4, 2024 Full Review Jason Gorber POV Magazine This is, quite simply, a celebration of the art of motion pictures, a love letter to those who love films.
