Editorial Reviews "...With bold, precise strokes Lauzon portrays the magic and isolation of anybody's youth..." Film Comment - Mary Corliss (07/01/1992)
"...LEOLO is an enchanting, disgusting, romantic, depressing, hilarious, tragic movie, and it is quite original....The structure of the film is another amazement, gradually revealing itself..." Chicago Sun-Times - Roger Ebert (04/08/1993)
"...Lauzon's hypnotic visuals combine with ethereal Tom Waits vocals to put over this aggressively earthy French-Canadian childhood remembrance..." USA Today - Mike Clark (03/25/1994)
"[L]yrical and grotesque by turns, it is an autobiographical coming-of-age story....Lauzon doesn't skimp on the brutality, but there is plenty of visual invention too." Sight and Sound - Geoffrey Macnab (11/01/2008)
