RTNew York TimesDec 6, 2004

It's a carefully composed, elegant, sometimes prescient work, a small-scale love story set against a background of tumultuous social and political change.

RTWashington PostJan 1, 2000

It's like looking for footprints, tracking the master this apprentice was to become.

Dave Kehr

RTChicago ReaderJan 1, 2000

It's a 'little people' comedy in the Frank Capra vein

It is still at its heart a drama but is filled with brightness and humour.
