My Art
The life of a single artist, Ellie Shine, who lives in a New York City, where she has enjoyed with her good friends, stable teaching job, and her loyal dog, Bing, have been changed as she wants to assess a respectful place in the art, so she turns the barn into her new work place, where she creates a good place to watch the classic movies. Incidents come to inspire her when she invites three men, two gardeners, and a lawyer, to join her, who finally fall in love with her.

It's fairly watchable, especially since Simmons' character Ellie has no time for single older woman clichés and is likably easygoing about everything but her unwell dog and questionable work.

Cemented by a superb cast and a witty, dry humor...

Short, sour-sweet and content to leave ideas and characters trailing in the summer breeze, "My Art" has evidently been made strictly on Simmons' terms, however wafty those may be.

A droll dramedy written and deftly directed by experimental photographic artist Laurie Simmons.

Part of the problem is that Ms. Simmons has surrounded herself with more interesting actors, including a scene-stealing Parker Posey.

[A] provocative feature directorial debut.

Proves coherent in form and feeling despite bustling with modes and ideas and curiosities.

It's a quiet, eccentric comedy-drama about artistic inspiration that won't knock your socks off, but it has its own awkward charms about how artists forge their identity while wrestling with professional boundaries.

It all centers on Simmons who, as an actress, is flat, revealing little dimension or exhibiting little character depth, growth or empathy.

Laurie Simmons isn't so much creating art as a means to explore cinema's effect on identity as she is conducting an act of indulgence.

An amusing riff on the way one's creative work bleeds into one's personal life... Simmons expresses a singular voice and style.

The film is pleasant without being ebullient, sad without being devastating, cruising along on life's rhythms sans thematic or aesthetic grandstanding.
