A fine and loving memorial that preserves his charm, his intellect and his splendid body of work.
Los Angeles Times by Kevin Thomas
The kind of full-length career portrait that every great actor deserves but rarely receives.
L.A. Weekly by F. X. Feeney
Nearly three and a half hours in length, but owing to its freedom of movement, the film feels weightless.
Austin Chronicle by Russell Smith
From the fan's perspective this is sheer bliss, the next best thing to pouring a couple of glasses of grappa and sitting down with a bona fide film immortal (and world-class raconteur) for a long, intimate conversation.
Boston Globe by Jay Carr
A long, warm, satisfying farewell encounter.
Salon by Charles Taylor
By no means a great movie...the movie is most liable to rekindle warm gratitude for all the pleasure he gave us.
TV Guide Magazine by Maitland McDonagh
A lovely homage to a charismatic star.

New York Post
An exhausting, overindulgent film, at least for American audiences...the experience feels like Grampa Simpson meets "Cinema Paradiso."
