Reception
Jean-Luc Godard, in the essays collected in Godard on Godard, wrote that this was one of the three films that he’d most want to write about if he were still a working film critic, praising  Skolimowski for shifting between the "particular" and the "general", because the director "describes the individual and the environment at the same time, and probably does it better than anybody else.” Richard Brody of The New Yorker wrote that the film  is "one of the masterworks of the brash, youthful, and defiant cinematic modernism of the mid-sixties, a film of a Polish New Wave that shares the insolence, the rejection of authority, and the energies of revolt that also mark the French New Wave."
