The film's restraint, along with its openness to many points of view, is not only admirable but makes for a more entertaining movie.
| Original Score: 3.5/4 | Dec 4, 2009
As soon as Guest of Cindy Sherman ended, I wanted to see it again for its high entertainment value and to determine better what I had just witnessed.
| Original Score: 4/4 | Jul 24, 2009
Paul H-O's hurt feelings over being the overlooked man in a relationship with a famous woman, are surely familiar and not especially provocative.

Guest's focus on Sherman and her work is [the film's] strength, providing an in-depth and revealing glimpse of one of the most celebrated artists in the world,
| Original Score: 3/5 | Mar 30, 2009
Paul Hasegawa-Overacker's chronicle of his relationship with publicity-shy artist Cindy Sherman absorbs, thanks to his beguiling personality and irreverent attitude toward the art world.

A moderately compelling and humorous documentary that leaves you wanting more revealing insight into the life and career of Cindy Sherman.
| Original Score: 6.25/10 | Mar 29, 2009
Guest of Cindy Sherman would be fun to watch on public access some late night. But as a big-screen attraction, it never measures up.
| Original Score: 1/4 | Mar 27, 2009
At once a fascinating behind-the-scenes glimpse, bittersweet autobiography and witty trip down art-world memory lane.
| Original Score: 3/5 | Mar 27, 2009
It's amazing that in an era of oversharing and reality 온라인카지노추천, a doc consisting mostly of cable 온라인카지노추천 clips and personal reminiscences can be so resonant.
| Original Score: 3/5 | Mar 26, 2009
It's a documentary about a wannabe celebrity and the internationally famous artist who almost makes his dreams come true. And like Sherman's subjects, it's all surface.
| Original Score: B- | Mar 26, 2009
The definitive study of the contemporary art world that Eric Bogosian, one of the movie's interviewees, calls "complete bullshit". Also a poignant study of a love story compromised by unequal power and celebrity. Not to be missed!

Absorbing yet lacking.
