Movie Reviews

Chicago Sun-Times - 9/10 by Roger EbertWe can recognized the rhythms of real life, in which personal drama sometimes has to wait while we attend to routine duties.
ReelViews - 9/10 by James BerardinelliA Tale of Springtime presents a rare and wonderful opportunity to discover a trio of multidimensional cinematic characters. Once you've been introduced, you won't want to be parted from them, whether or not Springtime ends.
Deseret News (Salt Lake City) - 8/10 by Chris HicksWhile it's true that his characters sometimes over-explain their motivations, on the whole A Tale of Springtime is up to Rohmer's usual standard.
New York Times - 8/10 by Vincent CanbyMr. Rohmer's films look like no one else's. They are direct and clean, the movie equivalent to prose that dispenses with adjectives and adverbs.
Austin Chronicle - 7/10 by Marjorie BaumgartenI am beginning to see how each of his films is a small piece of the one lifelong movie he's be cobbling all these years. And I am beginning to see how who I am at different points in my life affects my responses.
Apollo Guide - 6/10 by Jamie GilliesFrench film aficionados might find something satisfying about this little film, but apart from a unique Gallic perspective on the relationships that are presented in the film, there is little to hold the viewer's interest.
User Review - 10/10 by Mark SI personally liked it even though I am sure Holden Caulfield would decry this film as a phony, but still, this film has one of the most unusual influences of any film that comes from Hitchcock and yet, by far, the most unique and in my book, proves Rohmer to be quite a delight and a personal triumph of discovery quite frankly. Very unique, even the sexuality is very different here than elsewhere.
User Review - 10/10 by Frank PThis is as close as cinema gets to life. Human interaction is portrayed with utmost naturalness that the film is almost unbearably intense - exactly because it is so real. There is no caricature or chance encounter. No character acts according to plot or react to a particular motif. Everything flows as time passes by. Make the film a study of civility, personal reflection, and awareness of others. In an era where filmmakers try so hard to entertain their audiences, we ought to cherish films like this. It's an absolute masterpiece.
User Review - 8/10 by Pamela DIl s'agit d'un mystérieux petit bijou de film. Il a pratiquement pas de complot. Il est sexy, est habilement tourné, et elle est aussi charmante que l'on peut.
User Review - 8/10 by Private UA charming tale of two women who meet by chance at a Paris party. Rohmer's characters seem so believable that as the movie progresses you can understand them, their flaws and their motives. Not every character is likeable and at times it feels like you're intruding by watching. Nevertheless it kept me entertained from start to finish. Highly recommended.
