Critic Reviews

  • Jonathan Holland, Variety

    An involving love story between two emotionally damaged outsiders.

  • Jonathan Rosenbaum, Chicago Reader

    The sheer neurotic intensity of Techine's characters -- characteristically stretching both backward and forward in time, as in a Faulkner novel--holds one throughout, as does Techine's masterful direction and many of the other performances.

  • Andrew Sarris, New York Observer

    Alice and Martin is not to be missed, particularly in this endless lull of summer.

  • Louis B. Parks, Houston Chronicle

    Techine keeps a tight rein on his actors' dramatics.

  • Charles Taylor, Salon.com

    Alice et Martin has its faults, but there's some real meat here, in the performances and direction.
