The Legend of Suram Fortress Reviews
Dennis Schwartz Movie Reviews Dennis Schwartz
It's a unique film experience, one that is visually satisfying even if its narrative may be unfathomable. New York Times Walter Goodman
Although Mr. Paradjanov has a reputation as a prankster, I don't think this is an elaborate joke. [Paradjanov] recreates the past with an exaggerated sense of myth and magic. Washington Post Hal Hinson
It's impossible to watch even a few feet of film by Paradjanov without acknowledging his mastery of the medium and the originality of his vision. Bay Area Reporter Steve Warren
It's a more mature work [than The Color of Pomegranates] in many respects, but shows less of the "gei" in Sergei [Paradjanov], who co-directed. The film is maddeningly elliptical and enigmatic, ponderously slow, and generally incomprehensible.
