Elizabeth Weitzman New York Daily News Few performances are hardy enough both to blossom in the dark intimacy of live theater and bloom under the glaring eye of a movie camera. Ghostlight is not the exception. Rated: 2/4 Jun 25, 2004 Full Review Jan Stuart Newsday Achieves substance as a historical document, an homage, an appreciation of the axis of empathy shared between larger- than-life women and the (frequently) gay men who venerate them. Rated: 3/4 Jun 23, 2004 Full Review Dave Kehr New York Times Ms. Magnuson's consummate professionalism offers an unflattering contrast to Mr. Move's not-so-inspired amateurism. Rated: 2/5 Jun 23, 2004 Full Review David Noh Film Journal International An affectionate, witty tribute which also happens to be one of the best films about dance ever made. Aug 8, 2004 Full Review E! Staff E! Online It's a good-hearted dream of a film made all the more fascinating by virtue of its willful weirdness. Rated: B Jul 9, 2004 Full Review Maitland McDonagh TV Guide Even knowing [Move is] nearly a foot taller and considerably more robust than the real Graham, his performance is so completely realized that it radiates its own synthetic truth. Rated: 2.5/5 Jun 23, 2004 Full Review Read all reviews

Audience Member A continually annoying, graceless interpretation of Martha Graham and her work. The worst of self-absorbed gay campy materialism. Don't waste your time and money on this one especially if you are a Graham fan. Rated 1 out of 5 stars 02/07/23 Full Review Read all reviews
