Dennis Harvey Variety 06/02/2017
Thoroughly disarming and rewarding, despite a borderline-exasperating reluctance to fill in the most basic blanks regarding our subject's past and present circumstances. Go to Full Review

3.5/5
Strad Style is a serviceable look at the life of one completely unique individual, and considering that that is the extent of the film's ambitions, it's hard not to consider it a success. Go to Full Review

03/10/2019 This story will touch your soul.. it did mine. Starts slow and then grabs you See more 01/10/2018 This was a surprisingly great documentary. The entire film has you in angste, which builds to a crescendo that has you guessing just how things will play out. It was an unusual documentary for not having any background knowledge of the main character or any in-depth interviews,which mimics the professional violinist's understanding of the main character. Much like the violinist, who has placed an enormous amount of trust in our main character, the viewer should trust this documentary. See more 11/02/2017 Well done film.
