Leave your thoughts about Husbands and Wives.
| Filmcritic.comChristopher NullBleak yet strangely compelling look at modern romance. |
| Slant MagazineEd GonzalezAllen bravely posits one’s fear of change and the comfort in finiteness. In the end, Husbands and Wives becomes a mirror of false illusions, relentlessly held up by Allen before the faces of anyone who has ever looked for a reason to leave only to sheepishly stay behind. |
| Spirituality and PracticeFrederic and Mary Ann BrussatExamines the ways the soul of a marriage can be sustained or shattered by change and conflict. |
| New York TimesVincent CanbyIt's also an ensemble piece acted to loopy perfection by a remarkable cast headed by Judy Davis, Sydney Pollack, Mia Farrow, Juliette Lewis, Liam Neeson and Mr. Allen, who's also the writer, director and ringmaster, as well as his own best friend. |
| Mountain Xpress (Asheville, NC)Ken HankeAllen in moderately experimental mode. Good, but not one of his best. |
| MovieMartyr.comJeremy HeilmanOne of Allen's most criminally underappreciated films. |
| Chicago ReaderJonathan RosenbaumAllen's conception of character is as banal and shallow as ever, but the lively performances of some of his actors and the novelty of the film's style make this more watchable than many of his features. |
| rec.arts.movies.reviewsTed PriggeThis is one of Woody's best films, but it's also extremely bitter. |
| Los Angeles TimesKenneth TuranDespite the presence of a college-aged siren that Allen’s married, fiftysomething character becomes intoxicated with, this assured, penetrating film is no sentimental homage to May-December infatuations. Rather, Husbands and Wives is a lacerating comedy about love turned sour, a painful, deeply pessimistic yet somehow funny look at how caring relationships wind up as destructive emotional dead-ends. |
| Boston GlobeJay CarrThis is definitely his edgiest, rawest work in a good while. Acting is of a very high caliber across the board, but Judy Davis, in a very meaty part compared to her previous walk-on for Allen in “Alice,” is incandescent, revealing a whole new side to her personality that has never surfaced onscreen before. |
