  ## Critical reception
  
  Vincent Canby of The New York Times wrote "Michael Almereyda's 56-minute 'Another Girl, Another Planet' is something else entirely. It's as American as the East Village walk-up in which it was made, and as comically angst-ridden and gray as its images. 'Another Girl, Another Planet' was initially shot on a Fisher-Price Pixel toy video camera, then transferred to 16-millimeter film."
  
  The National Society of Film Critics gave the film a special citation in its 1992 awards for "expanding the possibilities of experimental filmmaking, including the use of a Pixelvision toy camcorder."
