Leave your thoughts about Circle of Friends.
| Laramie Movie ScopeRobert RotenIt's intelligent and moving and it never resorts to cheap melodrama. |
| Capital Times (Madison, WI)Rob ThomasSweet Irish melodrama, with a hilariously oily performance by Alan Cumming. |
| TimeRichard SchickelTheir sweet, determined, gently understated struggle for fulfillment in a superstitiously conservative society makes this densely, deftly packed movie a quiet joy to behold. |
| Chicago Sun-TimesRoger EbertCircle of Friends is heartwarming and poignant, a love story that glows with intelligence and feeling. |
| Rolling StonePeter TraversDriver's tough core of honesty and wit is bewitching. So's the movie. |
| Chicago ReaderJonathan RosenbaumThree female friends grow up in a small town in Ireland in the mid-50s and attend college in Dublin in this nostalgic soap opera that's vaguely evocative of Peyton Place, though generally less memorable. |
| The New RepublicStanley KauffmannDriver, who is padded but not fat, is an actress with self-possession to spare. Her looks defy conventional rules about modern beauty, but the directness of her gaze and the honesty of her smile make it difficult to look anywhere else when she is on screen. |
| Spirituality and PracticeFrederic and Mary Ann BrussatWry, wise, and wonderful valentine to intimate matters of the heart. |
| The New YorkerBruce DionesAlthough there isn't anything startlingly original in this tale of three Catholic girls falling in love in late-fifties Ireland, it gets a sweet telling in Pat O'Connor's pretty film. |
| The New York TimesElvis MitchellAnother nice thing about Circle of Friends is that it escapes a happily-ever-after scenario to provide more bite and toughness than it first promises. |
