Nicolaou and Ferrara arrive in The Projectionist to recount the New York, the cinematic experiences, and the movies of their childhoods. And we're all better off for it.

The documentary excels as kind of cultural microcosm, rich in its broader implications.

Rating: 3/5 --
For cinephiles, this will be effective propaganda in service of a belief they already hold, a reaffirmation of their purist convictions from a simpatico mind.

I was worried that The Projectionist would be another dirge about the end of an era, but it's Ferrara's light touch and likable subject that make it so much more.

Combining a tribute to the theatrical moviegoing experience with a profile of an immigrant living the American dream, Ferrara's documentary is both relevant and heartfelt.

A warm and inspiring immigrant story.

The Projectionist is not so much a hidden history of the movies as one that shines a light on an underground culture, fighting for survival, then and now.
