Quote:
"Joyce Wieland's films are among the most endearing I have ever seen, making her point and sealing the issue in a womanly way without any concern for ragged edges. La Raison avant la Passion is a whirlwind view of Canada with an anti-dialectical premise. Rat Life and Diet in North America is a very funny film, way beyond satire; her images are improbable, ironically accurate, and heartwarming. What will her big features be like?"
