Top Critics Reviews

rotten:
In Eve's Bayou, Tennessee goes to Louisiana, and finds a familiar home. Tennessee Williams, that is.
– Rick Groen,
Globe and Mail,
12 Apr 2002
rotten:
A gothic and, for better or worse, poetic memoir about a young girl and her family of Creole aristocrats.
– Mick LaSalle,
San Francisco Chronicle,
18 Jun 2002
fresh:
An intensely emotional drama that mixes elements of Southern Gothic with the kinds of characters and tensions that prevail in the plays of Southern writers like Tennessee Williams.
– Emanuel Levy,
Variety,
24 Jun 2006
fresh:
A sparkling directorial debut.
– Andrew Sarris,
New York Observer,
27 Apr 2007
fresh:
Subplots are woven stealthily into the story, taking the pressure off the central drama, allowing it to be affecting rather than melodramatic, and heightening the atmosphere of the lush Louisiana setting.
