    "From an oddly engaging and sweetly compelling birds-eye view, Manon discovers her life all over again."Palm Springs International Film Society: Manon on the Asphalt

    • "I'm really on the fence about this one, arguably the most risky and adventurous film on the list, so I'm going to rank it right in the middle. It's something like a miniature, more Parisian and even cuter version of "Crash.""Salon: Oscar Shows Us His Shorts
