"Remember Mick Jagger and Marianne Faithfull as a youthful rock ‘n’ roll power couple in 1960s London? Now both wrinkly, he’s still singing and prancing; she’s become an accomplished actress, judging by her role in Sam Garbarksi’s ironic Irina Palm."

"The [AIDS] virus knows no boundaries, and chaos easily overcomes social order. With breathtaking cinematography by Thomas M. Harting, Thom Fitzgerald's take on this dilemma does not offer much hope."
