Reviews

"[Steven] Delano's documentary is the first film about dwarfism...made by someone who actually knows what life under 5 feet is all about...Delano explores the role of little people in popular culture to find out what being a dwarf really means, to himself and to others of short stature."
Marissa Levy, USA Today

"A terrific film. I love Delano's wry, sensitive, intelligent voice, and his decision to use his own personal biography as a way to explore the vast world of dwarf images and movies and paintings and truths and lies is just brilliant. It gives him a way to weave great interviews...compile a treasure-trove of archival footage, and also ask the toughest questions in the most intimate way - when he asks his own mother if she would have had an abortion, it was so fearless and so unexpectedly tender, it just knocked me out. And the filmmaking was superb too."
John H. Richardson, author "In the Little World - A True Story of Dwarfs, Love, and Trouble"

"Fascinating...a compelling hour of warmth, humor and background about the world of little people."
Dusty Saunders, Rocky Mountain News

"While pretty people find things to hate about themselves, a documentary by dwarf Steven Delano explores the challenges of being different."
Molly Willow, The Columbus Dispatch

"Size matters. Bodies matter. But in No Bigger Than a Minute, character matters most."
Lisa Kennedy, Denver Post
