Critic Reviews

Impressive as is Wilson's output and oeuvre, it's the fully-engaged, aesthetically driven life that fascinates. And Otto-Bernstein's movie is a portrait of an artist at his most essential, in every sense.Full Review

There is plenty of substance in Absolute Wilson, as it provides a concise and absorbing portrait of a powerful creative personality.Full Review

A surprisingly conventional portrait of a decidedly unconventional man.Full Review

Eddie Cockrell
Variety

The film penetrates the myth and mythos surrounding Wilson, making his works more accessible and open to those of us who sometimes puzzle over the methods and meanings in his cerebral, psychologically complex expressionism. The film should engender an art house following in sophisticated urban venues before its HBO broadcast.Full Review
