The Mill and The Cross

Reviews


"Here is a film of great beauty and attention, and watching it is a form of meditation...
If you see no more than the opening shots, you will never forget them. "
- Roger Ebert

"An extraordinary imaginative leap...
a unique, immersive museum-meets-cinema experience."
- Dennis Harvey,Variety 

"No description can do justice to 'The Mill and the Cross,'
which must be seen to be fully appreciated."
- V.A. Musetto, New York Post 

"Visually striking. Audacious."
New York Magazine 

"An extraordinary example of both art-historical interpretation
and CGI as passport to unknown lands"
- Nick Pinkerton, Village Voice 

"Casts a transfixing spell...
has ambitions as sweeping as the vast canvas that Bruegel fills."
- Daniel M. Gold,The New York Times 

"...an extraordinarily ambitious undertaking...A brilliant personal triumph for Majewski.
A unique, category-defying viewing experience...very highly recommended"
- Joe Bendel, J.B. Spins 

"Highly original, visually stunning...jaw-dropping spectacle"

"...a dazzling master class in visual composition."
-Eric Hynes, Time Out NY 

"The word 'film' seems inadequate to describe Lech Majewski's 'The Mill and the Cross'...
Each scene is rendered like a brushstroke..."
