ALL SMILES AND SADNESS is like a very short TV show. Nothing is resolved and it leaves the viewer wishing it would go on forever.

“McGuire constructs a murky black and white soap-opera world of endless, timeless, and placeless limbo, where the characters talk to each other entirely in cliches, bad poetry, and other contrite forms of speech—a short TV show in which nothing is resolved. The tape culminates in an absolutely stunning monologue performance by legendary underground film and videomaker George Kuchar.” – Video Data Bank
