Movie Reviews

The Film Stage - 9/10 by Giovanni Marchini CamiaGarrel's exceptional achievement is managing to treat such potentially trite material with a freshness that is discreetly radical.
NOW Toronto - 8/10 by Paul EnnisGarrel's vibrant black-and-white character study is a throwback to the Nouvelle Vague French films of the 1960s.
Screen International - 8/10 by Allan HunterThe moody, black-and-white cinematography, literary voice-over and intense exploration of messy relationships and broken hearts effortlessly evokes the world of Eric Rohmer and Francois Truffaut.
Chicago Reader - 8/10 by J. R. JonesGarrel uses a panoramic frame to stress the characters' closeness (or lack thereof), and the players waltz through his simple, neatly structured script.
Gay City News - 8/10 by Steve EricksonIn the end, "In the Shadow Of Women" is a film about betrayal, and its final scenes suggest how that betrayal has consequences in the political realm beyond one marriage.
The Sunday Age - 7/10 by Craig MathiesonIn Philippe Garrel's finely wrought In the Shadow of Women ... the struggles of the creative class are repeatedly contrasted with the weight of 20th-century French history.
Thrillist - 7/10 by Matt PatchesShot in diffused black and white ... the movie teeters on the edge of self-parody. Two heated performances, sexy and vicious, anchor it in the artful.
Guardian - 6/10 by Benjamin LeeAt a swift 73 minutes, the film certainly zips by and there's some crisp cinematography on show but as quickly as it ends, it also disappears from the mind.
Spirituality and Practice - 6/10 by Frederic and Mary Ann BrussatA French drama that reveals the pain and confusion of those whose marriages have been rocked by infidelity
Willamette Week - 6/10 by Sophia JuneIt's more dialogue than action, but the film's emotional conversations hit home-especially the brutally honest scenes in which the couple lie together after sex and both know that the love is gone.
