Top Critic
Demme and LaGravenese are just as happy to let the directors bask in their past glories and reminisce about those crazy days.

It's illuminating and nostalgic and for anyone who lined up for American movies in that bygone golden age.
08/07/03
...less of a serious, insightful documentary and more of a nostalgic love letter.
06/19/03
The past is so bright here, co-directors Richard LaGravenese and the late Ted Demme must have worn shades.

It's as if we're watching the equivalent of a VH1 special edited for an in-flight movie.
06/05/03
Top Critic Succeeds as both a primer for newcomers and as eye candy for established film fans.
05/30/03
Unlike many documentaries about movies, it's neither underfunded nor perfunctory, but thoughtful and bracing.

Top Critic Fitfully interesting in its own right, but more useful as a device to point you toward checking out the original source material.
05/30/03
Leaves us to wonder whether ever again will so many creative free spirits move into the mainstream in such numbers and with such success.

Top Critic What's missing is anything resembling a point of view ... or the slightest sense of critical discrimination.
05/29/03
A breezy but incomplete valentine to the most fertile period in American film
05/25/03
It's gratifying and exhilarating enough -- the movie's a foolproof greatest-hits clips package. But Christie is its major coup.

Top Critic When Coppola bellyaches you want to ask, Hey buddy, who forced the studios to give up on radical filmmakers by going insanely overbudget and past schedule with Apocalypse Now?
05/22/03
an entertaining introduction of the "auteur directors" that emerged from 1968 to 1978
