Leave your thoughts about Trixie.
| Greenwich Village GazetteEric LurioUnfortunately, the weak spots overwhelm the comedy and the mystery isn't really that interesting. |
| Internet ReviewsSteve RhodesAll of the cast nicely complement Watson, as it is her movie, and watching her is a real treat. |
| Film Comment MagazineGavin SmithAlan Rudolph's Trixie is a delightful mystery/conspiracy thriller genre pastiche, full of his customary inversions, mirrorings, and visual mischief. |
| Film.comElizabeth WeitzmanThe script is ridiculous and the direction inept. |
| Seattle Post-IntelligencerSean AxmakerIn a summer of cardboard figures in splashy spectacles, that makes for a refreshing change, an intriguing, entertaining and altogether sweetly mystifying misfire. In other words, another quintessentially Alan Rudolph picture. |
| Los Angeles TimesKevin ThomasSo much of the film is so funny, inspired and sophisticated, the performances so richly nuanced, that many viewers, Rudolph admirers in particular, will be inclined to forgive a little self-indulgence on the part of this authentic auteur. |
| Los Angeles Daily NewsBob StraussEverything about Trixie -- comic timing, plot structure, basic premise -- is so off that not all the talent in the world can set it on the right track. |
| Film.comRobert HortonFor me, Trixie finds its own peculiar groove, and-buoyed by a compulsively watchable actress-folds neatly into the off-center work of a distinctive American director. |
| New York Daily NewsJami BernardTrixie has "cult favorite" written all over it. That is to say, the general public is likely to say ixnay. |
| Boston GlobeJay CarrThere are so many wonderful moments in Trixie and so few films like it that you wish Rudolph had given it a few more rewrites. |
