Globe and Mail

Tamra Davis's documentary does serve as a worthy companion to Julian Schnabel's 1996 biopic.

Rated: 3/4

A touching portrait that may not be the last word on the painter, but has facts and context to burn.

Rated: 3.5/4

Boston Globe

The intimate, home video footage -- which has never been shown -- feels poignant, a throwback to Basquiat's early days on the New York scene when he got by on his good looks, an elusive inner confidence, and the generosity of others.

Rated: 3/4

Tamra Davis coloca Jean-Michel Basquiat no centro de um retrato eficaz, inspirador e surpreendentemente enternecedor. Estes méritos contribuem para que "The Radiant Child" seja quase um trampolim para um conhecimento mais aprofundado do trabalho de Basquiat. Com todo a arte incrível que abunda ao longo de quase uma hora e meia, era necessária uma realização péssima para arruinar este documentário.

Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars

Extensive old footage interspersed with contemporary interviews give the viewer a real feel for the time, the place and the artist.

My favorite movie of all time. Very inspirational and informative. Correctly focused more on the art than on the person. This makes more sense, because the art is the deepest, most informative reflection of the person. This is a concept that may be complex, but if you pay attention closely while observing a painting it will tell you all that you need to know about Jean Michel Basquiat.

Rated 5 out of 5 stars
