| Ozus' World Movie ReviewsDennis SchwartzWhat goes for dialogue was totally forgettable, or regrettable, or whatever... |
| TheMovieReport.comMichael DequinaAn intelligent examination of sexuality and relationships. |
| Film Journal InternationalDavid NohCompletely believable and emotionally true from beginning to end. |
| User ReviewRamie TThe film itself is great. A great adaption of Yukio Mishima's novel. If you start off by watching Isabelle in la Pianiste, it would be very difficult for you to imagine that she can be as tender as.. i don't know, a flower in spring (?!) She might not have the prettiest face on earth, but without a word, she can turn herself into the most loveable creature on this planet. Just look at her facial expression... |
| User ReviewMad PThis is one of the most real-life, intimately analyzed movies about a relationship I've ever seen. This movie is actually better than the Techine movies I used to think were masterpieces of French character studies. |
| User ReviewMike Lwhat makes it special is skipping and. shuffling story - it gives you filling of all this nightmare |
| User ReviewMatthew SBoth Benoît Jacquot and Isabelle Huppert are at the very top of their game with this masterful film. A must see. |

| User ReviewPrivate UThere are naked people in this movie but it's not porn. It's worth a look if you can handle subtitles. |
