      Elissa Suh StageBuddy.com The film is more whimsical than hard hitting, and in some ways the jocular tone betrays the seriousness of its subject, but it is in the end still a fascinating piece of cinema. Mar 16, 2020 Full Review Richard Brody New Yorker An anguished view of the power relations, societal conflicts, and cruel sacrifices from which Clarke's film arose. May 2, 2016 Full Review Alan Scherstuhl Village Voice Exposed here is the longstanding and somewhat vampiric process of white artists extracting for their work minority perspectives and experiences. Oct 20, 2015 Full Review Dennis Harvey 48 Hills A more accomplished second narrative director feature... Sep 20, 2021 Full Review Alexander Ryll Gay Essential On December 3, 1966, filmmaker Shirley Clarke sat down to interview local hustler Jason Holliday about his life. The interview, lasted an unimaginable twelve hours. Jason and Shirley recreates a fictional re-imagining of that evening. Rated: 5/5 Sep 15, 2019 Full Review Ernest Hardy CraveOnline Mercifully, it's never too pedantic (it skirts close a few times) and is often quite funny - as when she gets in digs at Andy Warhol. But the film never really gets at the hostilities lobbed at Jason. Nov 15, 2016 Full Review Read all reviews
