Review of Fading Gigolo (2013)

By Mike D'angelo (730) for The Dissolve (1,478) on 16 Apr 2014

Review of Fading Gigolo (2013)

By Eric Kohn (1,203) for indieWire (3,631) on 14 Apr 2014

Intentionally or not, however, Fading Gigolo actually functions as something of a statement on Allen's persona—onscreen and off—as it has…

By Tim Grierson (1,482) for Paste Magazine (2,906) on 14 Apr 2014

By Jordan Hoffman (1,025) for Film.com (1,892) on 15 Sep 2013

By Ty Burr (2,612) for Boston Globe (6,852) on 13 Sep 2013

Review of Fading Gigolo (2013)

By Kevin Jagernauth (311) for The Playlist (3,871) on 09 Sep 2013
