2/5  "What is captured during the conceptual process doesn't add up to a sufficient explanation of what the final dance work, The Selection, became in its final form."
-- Kim Williamson, BOXOFFICE MAGAZINE

3.5/5  "Provides an illuminating glimpse into what goes on in the dance studio."
-- Maitland McDonagh, TV GUIDE'S MOVIE GUIDE

  "Unfortunately, neither Sendak nor the directors are particularly engaging or articulate."
-- Maria Garcia, FILM JOURNAL INTERNATIONAL

B  "an 83 minute document of a project which started in a muddle, seesawed back and forth between controlling interests multiple times, then found its sweet spot"
-- Laura Clifford, REELING REVIEWS

B-  "The culmination of everyone’s efforts is given life when A Selection appears in its final form [in "Last Dance"]."
-- Robin Clifford, REELING REVIEWS

Cream of the Crop
FRESH 100%
  "Riveting when it focuses on the challenges of crossing a generational divide."
-- Elizabeth Zimmer, VILLAGE VOICE

2.5/4  "Rehearsals are frequently more fascinating than the results. Last Dance, whatever its flaws, fulfills one facet of its mission in making me want to find out whether, in this case, that's true."
-- Christine Temin, BOSTON GLOBE

3/4  "It's a rare window on an artistic collaboration."
-- Carrie Rickey, PHILADELPHIA INQUIRER

4/5  "The movie provides an intimate glimpse of how sensibilities as compatible as oil and water forced themselves to blend and create a successful work despite their aesthetic differences."
-- Stephen Holden, NEW YORK TIMES

3/4  "Discursive but oddly riveting documentary."
-- Clive Barnes, NEW YORK POST

If I could be anywhere: "Back in Cuba, sitting Indian style on the Malecon. Mojito in one hand, handsome revolutionary in the other."
