Movie Reviews

KPBS.org - 9/10 by Beth AccomandoTeixeira brings his camera into her home and quietly records the details of her daily life. The result is a carefully observed film about one woman's growing dissatisfaction.
Seattle Times - 8/10 by Jeff ShannonIn a remarkably assured, no-frills feature debut, Brazilian documentarian Chico Teixeira draws a vivid portrait of marital and familial dysfunction.
Washington Post - 8/10 by Desson ThomsonEven though it sounds awfully depressing, there's something moving about watching people go at their lives with everything they have -- or don't have.
East Bay Express - 8/10 by Kelly VanceFilmmaker Teixeira, a veteran documentarian, keeps Alice's world on a short, ultra-realistic leash.
Los Angeles CityBeat - 8/10 by Andy KleinRibas has justifiably won a shelf of awards for her portrayal.
San Francisco Chronicle - 8/10 by David WiegandTeixeira elicits extraordinary performances from his entire cast.
New York Post - 8/10 by V.A. MusettoThe titular abode in the Brazilian drama Alice's House is crowded, and its inhabitants dysfunctional.
New York Daily News - 8/10 by Elizabeth WeitzmanThe power of this plot comes from the drudgery of daily existence, not shocking revelations or dramatic encounters. Some stories, Teixeira is wise enough to realize, are best left unadorned.
Variety - 8/10 by Deborah YoungIf telenovelas were convincingly real, they would no doubt look like the tumultuous world of domestic strife and libido deftly limned in Alice's House. Documaker Chico Teixeira gives a light, natural feel to his small but fetching first feature.
Boston Globe - 8/10 by Ty BurrLike a Brazilian telenovela unfolding in real time, the film fans its cards out slowly until we can see for ourselves the deck is stacked.
