StunnaKrypto Self-important, over-dramatic, uninspired.

Glucedee It's hard to see any effort in the film. There's no comedy to speak of, no real drama and, worst of all.

CrawlerChunky In truth, there is barely enough story here to make a film.

Humaira Grant It’s not bad or unwatchable but despite the amplitude of the spectacle, the end result is underwhelming.

simon-29802 Fantastic doc, huge research done by a very talented teamA must see for anybody interested in Faberge and the creative process. Also a very interesting historical doc on Russian history combining information on the Russian revolution on one hand and the history of Faberge on the other hand. At times it made for uncomfortable viewing as you saw the lives of the Romanov family in stark contrast to the lives of average Russsian The Faberge craftsmanship was and is exceptional which was very well highlighted by thoughtful interviews and lovely close ups of the Faberge object d'art. It was also fascinating to see how the 'new' Faberge was trying to keep the flame alive with I think great success I highly recommend this doc.

Fiona Walsh Faberge: "A Life Of Its Own" is an exceptional film, documenting the history of Faberge. It is captivating, highly informative and beautifully filmed. It is a documentary literally in "A Class Of Its Own". I highly recommend it. It has clearly been thoroughly researched. It incorporates the origins of Faberge from pre Russian Revolution right up to the present day. There are fascinating interviews with Faberge's descendants and numerous owners of treasured Faberge objects d'art. It takes one through step by step the intricate process of how these exquisite pieces are designed and made giving the viewer a fascinating and intimate insight into the world of inspired ideas and skill which ultimately lead to the birth of a masterpiece.
