The Paris Opera Reviews
San Francisco Chronicle
G. Allen Johnson
"The Paris Opera" has plenty of interesting moments, and certainly it's a must for opera fans, despite its faults.
Washington Post
Kristen Page-Kirby
Although the action of the film is chronological, Bron hops around from place to place - boardroom, dressing room, practice room - and from subject to subject, so quickly that, without guidance, it's nearly impossible to place anything in context.
Boston Globe
Peter Keough
Bron's film is an impressionistic immersion into a complex organization of hundreds of dedicated, talented people, for whom, whatever happens, the show must go on.
Hollywood Reporter
Boyd van Hoeij
Clearly, [Stephane] Bron is more interested in the work that goes into creating what happens on stage rather than the performances themselves, and the film thankfully never turns into a very highbrow concert film.
Chicago Reader
Leah Pickett
Swiss director Jean-Stéphane Bron recalls Frederick Wiseman in subject and verite style with this involving chronicle of the Paris Opera's 2015-'16 season
Los Angeles Times
Sheri Linden
Covering an eventful artistic season, Jean-Stphane Bron's "The Paris Opera" is a well-observed vrit portrait of a major cultural institution.
Village Voice
Nick Schager
Unfortunately, the film has nothing much to say other than that the enterprise is inherently complicated - which isn't point enough for 111 minutes of screen time.
New York Times
Ben Kenigsberg
"The Paris Opera" feels at once sprawling and insufficiently patient. Even so, it spans a pivotal stretch ...
The Stranger (Seattle, WA)
Charles Mudede
There are certain sequences in this doc that will lift your spirits up to the highest states of feeling that this art can reach.
Film Journal International
Lisa Jo Sagolla
A disrespectful documentary that uses decontextualized behind-the-scenes footage to highlight the absurd.
