Movie Reviews

Reviews:
"An intimate and unusual behind-the-scenes look at the creation of a ballet, it may sound rarefied but has enough moments of truth and beauty to engage general audiences." - 02/12/2015 Los Angeles Times


"The tension of BALLET 422 is supplied mainly by Lipes’ consistently inventive and probing visuals and by what he chooses to elide." -- Grade: A- - 02/05/2015 A.V. Club


3 stars out of 4 -- "[T]he movie does an excellent job of showing the commonplace workaday atmosphere that is, in fact, a big part of that business we call show." - 02/06/2015 RogerEbert.com


"Lipes’s behind-the-scenes look at the creation of 'Paz de la Jolla' covers everything from watching the principal dancers master every turn to politicking with the orchestra to designing the costumes." - 03/05/2015 Washington Post
