Quote:
"Best known as the first narrative feature to be directed by a woman in Canada, Sylvia Spring's Madeleine Is... should also be recognized as one of the best documents of Vancouver in the history of fiction film, unusually sophisticated in dealing with urban issues as pertinent today as they were in the 1970s."
