Leave your thoughts about Archaeology of a Woman.
| Village VoiceSam WeisbergSharon Greytak's Archaeology of a Woman is a decidedly well-made, unnerving film. |
| RogerEbert.comDan CallahanKirkland does some fine work here, but her Margaret deserves a better script and a better movie. |
| Epoch TimesJoe BendelA lot of good intentions and artistic courage went into Archaeology, but they never come together in a coherent whole. |
| Los Angeles TimesCharles SolomonKirkland manages to rise above the soap opera script with its improbable twists, stilted dialogue and internal contradictions to give a believable and often-sympathetic performance. |
| The New York TimesJeannette CatsoulisBurdened by a ludicrous script and messy direction, Ms. Kirkland — a headstrong veteran performer who is nothing if not game — has proved that she can play this kind of role in her sleep. If only the movie around it were worthy of her efforts. |
| The Hollywood ReporterJohn DeForeA seemingly well-intentioned but deeply flawed film about dementia that becomes as erratic and misguided as its protagonist, Sharon Greytak's Archaeology of a Woman does no favors to those afflicted with cognitive disease or those hoping to understand them. |
| Film Journal InternationalDoris ToumarkinePlot holes aside, Archaeology offers powerful performances from the female leads, who also happen to be incredibly convincing as mother and daughter. |
| Slant MagazineWes GreeneIt purports to be an incisive character study dramatized through outré "dream logic," but Sharon Greytak's ineptitude at this very Lynchian aesthetic sucks all nuance and spirit out of the film. |
| User ReviewTroy CAn outstanding movie/thriller with award deserving performances! Thanks |
| User ReviewRoss GThis is a deep and complex film. Coming out of the theater, a friend remarked that the confusion he felt reminded him of Bergman films. It also seemed to me to have more of a foreign than domestic flavor. Two days passed before I absorbed Sally Kirkland?s masterfully nuanced portrait of a strong and clever woman struggling to avoid what seems to be unavoidable disaster closing in on her as disease gradually robs her of the ability to protect herself. Now, I see this story as an empowering tribute to the ability of the human soul. |
