...a stunning debut by Natascha McElhone...

R

Roger Ebert

RTChicago Sun-TimesJan 1, 2000

When it is over we are left with the conclusion that if Picasso had not been a great artist, this story would not have much mattered; as a beast toward women, he was nothing special.

Hopkins’ portrayal of [Picasso] is no less than brilliant.

J

John Richardson

RTThe New York Review of BooksAug 16, 2018

Surviving Picasso not only fails to entertain; it puts the artist and his work at considerable risk by playing into the hands of modern-art-haters, in this respect like the book on which it claims to be based.
