Movie Reviews

San Francisco Chronicle - 10/10 by Edward GuthmannA wise, enormously enjoyable film about the power of fantasy -- a toast to the importance of dreams.
BBC.com - 10/10 by Almar HaflidasonLuis Buñuel creates an eminently classy film that is a splendid piece of escapism for the viewer. Central to this is Catherine Deneuve who oozes such sophisticated sexuality that one becomes utterly immersed in her potentially dangerous adventure.
Slant Magazine - 10/10 by Ed GonzalezA radical work that both looks back at the director's own early surrealist cinema and anticipates the work of David Lynch.
Combustible Celluloid - 10/10 by Jeffrey M. AndersonAny number of conclusions may be drawn as to the purpose of the film, and they'd all be correct. The mark of a classic.
TV Guide - 10/10 by Michael ScheinfeldA delightful puzzle, and [Catherine] Deneuve's finest hour-and-a-half.
Washington Post - 10/10 by Rita KempleyThe director may have been ahead of his time, but he displays no more compassion for his characters than a psycho killer shows for his victims.
Chicago Sun-Times - 10/10 by Roger EbertIt is possibly the best-known erotic film of modern times, perhaps the best.
Guardian - 10/10 by Peter BradshawWith co-writer Jean-Claude Carrière, Buñuel creates a secret theatre of erotic shame.
The Big Issue - 10/10 by Edward Lawrensonhe fact Belle de Jour resists such settled interpretation is one reason to see it... Another reason is Deneuve.
Q Network Film Desk - 9/10 by James KendrickA character study with surreal interludes and a rare film in which Buñuel depicts a member of the upper class with some sympathy and depth
