Entertainment Reviews:

New York Times - 05/06/1990

"...Greenaway brings a welcome playfulness to [the film]....This is one of the best things [Dennehy] has done..."

Variety - 05/06/1987

"...A visual treat, almost an homage to the style of Rome's architecture, lensed with skill and packed with esoteric nuances....THE BELLY OF AN ARCHITECT looks wonderful..."

Film Comment - 07/01/1987

"...The film is ravishing. The composition of every shot is carefully, fanatically balanced....Anyone who does not find the film gorgeous rates an eye test..."

Los Angeles Times - 06/22/1990

"...Dennehy gives a wonderfully nimble performance..."
