	Author	Review
United States	Glenn Kenny The New York Times	"The intercutting between vintage footage of the Jones/Zane company and the student production, as well as footage from another contemporary production of the piece (...) make for an unusually lively documentary experience"	POS
United States	Joe Morgenstern The Wall Street Journal	"It’s a fertile idea, beautifully executed. We learn as they learn what the piece means, and why it has endured"	POS
United States	Sheila O'Malley rogerebert.com	"A history lesson not only about the dance but its surrounding context (...) Above all that, it is a celebration of the process of creation (…) Rating: ★★★★ (out of 4)"	POS
