Reviews
'If you love movies in the very sinews of your imagination, you should experience the work of Guy Maddin ... he rewrites history; when that fails, he creates it.' -- Roger Ebert '[Maddin is] the most reluctantly radical and humorously tortured maverick working in the movies today.' -- John Waters, director of Pink Flamingos and Hairspray. 'For followers of the director's work, Guy Maddin's My Winnipeg [the book] is a great find, showcasing perhaps that part of the man's authorial voice that comes from his writing as opposed to his direction.' -- Broken Pencil
