George Lucas
MAY 21, 2002 PATRICK GOLDSTEIN. Seclusion Has Left Lucas Out of Touch and corporate tycoons lose touch with reality just as often as filmmakers. But it's especially painful to watch artists who were once so plugged into the culture fall so out of touch. It's happened to Woody Allen and Martin Scorsese, two cinema gods whose recent movies have been woefully self-absorbed and emotionally stunted.

2002-01-05 Gosford Park imdb.com

R. Altman
Ebert
"Gosford Park" is the kind of generous, sardonic, deeply layered movie that Altman has made his own. As a director he has never been willing to settle for plot; he is much more interested in character and situation, and likes to assemble unusual people in peculiar situations and stir the pot. Here he is, like Prospero, serenely the master of his art.
Stephen Hunter: Comedy of Manors. It's the kind of weekend you'll never be invited to, chum.
One of those big English houses, way out in the country. Place as big as an ocean liner.
