Top Critics Reviews

fresh:
The White Countess, although it has its share of Masterpiece Theatre moments, is another film to remind us just how cosmopolitan is the Merchant-Ivory filmography.

rotten:
... The White Countess is so bloodless it all but cries for a transfusion.

rotten:
A tedious, overblown bit of business.

fresh:
A tale well told, a look at history in the making and those being shaken in the process.
– Tom Long,

rotten:
It's a pretty journey, even if it is far too talky and emotionally distant to really work.
