2.5/4
"Interviews with aging caretakers of the
Yiddish Theater
are vivid windows into a bygone world, and Spaisman herself, a feisty firebrand whose accent is so strong Katzir supplied subtitles, is a formidable personality."
TV Guide's Movie Guide
Maitland McDonagh
7/10
"We can only hope that the film draws audiences larger today than those we see drawn by the Folksbeine."

3/5
"Dan Katzir's film is, in many ways, an elegy to the Yiddish theater."
Film Threat
Phil Hall
2.5/4
"The film's candid personalities provide plenty of memorably off-the-cuff moments."
Slant Magazine
Rob Humanick
4.5/5
" However, whether by design or happy coincidence, several more universal truths lurk tantalizingly in the upper balcony and lift this production from the specific to the universal."
