Marianne & Leonard: Words of Love

The strongest aspect of "Marianne and Leonard" has nothing to do with Ihlen or Cohen, but is the vivid picture painted of the 1960s counterculture, particularly its manifestation on Hydra.

Praiseworthy for finally providing some three-dimensionality to the figure of Ihlen...

...a vivid snapshot of the early 1960s and a complicated, mysterious love story.

...lyser som et visuelt poetisk og fint fortalt vidnesbyrd om, hvordan en kærlighedsrelation kan strække sig gennem livet.

...feels like an honest portrayal of an intense relationship as well as a fascinating insight into the professional and private life of the legendary Cohen.

Der er skønhed i dokumentaren om Leonard Cohen og hans norske kæreste...

...den stora behållningen bortom snygga svartvita bilder på Cohen, Marianne och Hydras åsnor, är att Broomfield för en gångs skull drar fram taggarna som denna era av fri kärlek förde med sig.
