Top Critics Reviews

fresh:
Whenever the subtleties of political morality get a bit overbearing, there's a respite in the painterly streets of Paris, where, we are reminded, the past was another city, strange and resistant to present-day adornments.
– Liam Lacey,
Globe and Mail,
26 Jul 2002
fresh:
Working from Elliott's memoir, Rohmer fashions the sort of delicate, articulate character- and- relationship study he's favored for decades.
– Hazel-Dawn Dumpert,
L.A. Weekly,
26 Jul 2002
fresh:
Nothing short of a technical marvel and a ravishing movie to look at.
– Geoff Pevere,

fresh:
Seldom has the elegant past of 18th century royal life married modern filmmaking with the grace and sophistication of Eric Rohmer's L'anglaise et le duc.
– Marta Barber,
Miami Herald,

fresh:
Leave it to Rohmer, now 82, to find a way to bend current technique to the service of a vision of the past that is faithful to both architectural glories and commanding open spaces of the city as it was more than two centuries ago.
