Film Comment, 07/01/1995, p.11-15, "...As a beguiling game of sound and picture, LISBON STORY shines. It catches Wenders in a relaxed, reflective mood..."
New York Times, 08/01/1997, p.C3, "...Dreamy....Poetic....Mr. Wenders became enthralled by the haunting music of Madredeus and made those sounds equally integral to his film..."
