"A beautifully crafted Picture This documentary built around the unveiling of a Blue Plaque on Hendrix's London home...." The Daily Mail
"Amirani's success lies in evoking Hendrix's everyday London life..." Time Out "In the pleasingly eccentric Picture This......" The Guardian "Picture This is both less dramatic and more intimate...." The Times "A wryly charming documentary about the erection of a blue plaque at the rock star's central London flat...." The Telegraph "More entertainingly, Amir Amirani's delightful Picture This: Hallelujah Hendrix, follows the process by which an absurdly stuffy English Heritage committee came to erect a blue plaque." Sunday Times
