Leonard Cohen. I'm Your Man. (2006)
"He has withstood the test of time and, even more difficult, the fickleness of the music industry and this film will satisfy the interest of anyone wanting to experience the spirit of this remarkable talent. As Mel Gibson observes with surprising poetic insight “Leonard Cohen has spent a life seeking purity of expression. He has humbled himself, shunning the superfluous distractions of the material to venture naked and open of heart into that dark night of the soul; to return then with his words, a Sherpa from the depths, bearing missives that tell of the indefinable.”
Steve McQueen: The Essence of Cool (2005)
"The skillful collage of images are key to Freedman’s expert ability to connect the audience with the full expression of McQueen’s vulnerability, tough minded street smarts, joyful sexy expression of masculinity, dancer like grace and aggressive ambition. Very hot, very cool and highly recommended."
ART
October 2008, White Hot Magazine of Contemporary Art
"At her best, when she is reining in the faux drama or sly commentary, she creates genuinely quiet poetic moments, such as the image of the single dead soldier lying on the beach with a setting sun or in a quiet, snowy forest glen."
PERFORMANCE
Nancy Evans "Tiny Alice"
High Performance, Issue # 37, 1987
"Scottie welcomed the diversion of a third character, Scarlet, played with wonderful comic flair by Patty Podesta. Sensual, mischievous and indolent, she presented an earthy, playful contrast to dreamy Alice. Lurching through the door holding her glass high and demanding "INDULGE US PLEASE!" she was drunk, annoyed and in no mood for advice. Scottie welcomed this delicious distraction from Tiny Alice’s enormous self-concern."
