REVIEWS
“…it’s through Harrington’s ability to deeply and patiently listen that the portrait grows more remarkable by the minute.”
Lauren Wissot, Documentary Magazine
“’Beyond the Duplex Planet’ doesn’t just recount Greenberger’s fascinating work but subtly turns it into a call to find art in everyday life, and to find value in listening to those who have lived it.”
Brian Tallerico, RogerEbert.com
“The documentary is funny, lighthearted, and full of warmth, but it’s also profound…It’s playful and offbeat but never loses sight of the humanity at its core.”
Louisa Moore, Screen Zealots
“…the film simply keeps evolving and building upon itself into something glorious, warm, and human. This is a film that reveals life to us in ways we never expected. How the hell can I even try to explain what a glorious experience seeing this film is.”
Steve Kopian, Unseen Films
“Beth Harrington’s profile of artist David Greenberger…rethinks what art is.”
Stephen Saito, Moveable Fest
“[one of our SXSW] most anticipated films…open-hearted and flexible in its approach to people on the fringes.”
Jacob Oller, Paste Magazine
“[Harrington’s] film is a warm and funny portrait of a unique artist…a must-see.”
Herbert Gambill, Mystery Catalog
“…beautifully constructed…essential viewing”
Jonathan Marlow, Hammer and Nail
“The storytelling unfolds at an unhurried pace, which suits a film about listening. Greenberger spent decades paying attention to what other people had to say. Harrington returns the favor by giving his story room to breathe.”
Paul Emmanuel Enicola, The Movie Buff
“…director Beth Harrington reminds us of the importance of slow consumption and the meaningfulness a body of creative work in one’s lifetime can convey.”
Trish Connelly, Rebel Noise
“… a salute to the ineffable source of artistic inspiration…How much art might we find, how much could we share in our lives, if only we bothered to listen.”
Valerie Kalfrin, Alliance of Women Film Journalists
