Critic Reviews

  • Dave Kehr, Chicago Reader

    His unorthodox dramatic construction rejects the symmetry of classical plotting, and the narrative has a quirky, self-propelling quality that allows for some astonishing things to happen.

  • Emanuel Levy, EmanuelLevy.Com

    Arguably Maurice Pialt's best film, a startling coming-of age tale about a girl who who explores her sexuality against the setting of a dysfunctional, incestuous family. In her heartfelt performance, Sandrine Bonnaire makes a stunning screen debut.

  • Christopher Null, Filmcritic.com

    a punch in the stomach after a fifth of whiskey, a horrorshow of sexuality where it simply shouldn't be.

  • Frederic and Mary Ann Brussat, Spirituality and Practice

    A cogent French film about the subtle ways a troubled family warps a young girl's passage into adulthood.

    It wasn't all that spectacular but it held my interest enough. The girl is very pretty and does a great acting job but the storyline bugs me a little.
