Rivers and Tides Ratings & Reviews
Lessons of Darkness
Nick Schager
An absorbing portrait of a unique artist's professional and personal communion with nature.
Atlanta Journal-Constitution
Eleanor Ringel Cater
The artistry of Thomas Riedelsheimer's film perfectly compliments Goldsworthy's art.
Arizona Republic
Richard Nilsen
[Goldsworthy's] art is meant to be evanescent, like the nature he reveres. We are privileged to see it documented by the filmmaker's camera.
Dallas Morning News
Mr. Goldsworthy's work is meant to be photographed -- 'photography is the way that I talk about my sculptures,' he says -- and Mr. Riedelsheimer rises to the occasion.
Detroit Free Press
Terry Lawson
Assumes a meditative, Zen-like quality that sends the viewer floating away, like a leaf.
Denver Post
Kyle MacMillan
Like Goldsworthy's art, it is primal, transcendent and truthful.
Detroit News
Tom Long
The sort of film that sounds completely kooky until you see it. At which point it's still pretty kooky, but you realize just how cool kooky can still be.
Minneapolis Star Tribune
Jeff Strickler
Watching Goldsworthy painstakingly piece together his artwork, we come to realize that his artistry lies as much in the act of creation as in the fleeting final product.
Seattle Times
Moira MacDonald
A calm and lovely film that audiences hungry for beauty will likely devour with their eyes.
Washington Post
Paul Richard
The trouble with this art movie is that it's more a movie than it's art.
Washington Post
Desson Thomson
Watch this film. You may never look at nature indifferently again.
Chicago Sun-Times
Roger Ebert
Watching this movie is like daydreaming.
Chicago Tribune
Alan G. Artner
I know of no documentary on a contemporary artist that conveys so much about the artist's work so lyrically and directly.
Los Angeles Times
Kenneth Turan
Intoxicating and meditative by turns, helped by Fred Frith's minimalist score, this film opens a portal into a singular creative mind.
Ebert & Roeper
Richard Roeper
It made me smile a lot.
Boston Globe
Christine Temin
Even after seeing Rivers and Tides, there's still a lot we don't know about how he works.
Village Voice
Ed Halter
Sensitive and stimulating documentary.
New York Post
V.A. Musetto
Thoughtful and entertaining documentary.
