Amy Taubin Film Comment Magazine Actresses is a comedy of errors that beggars description.</I. Nov 14, 2013 Full Review Ed Gonzalez Slant Magazine Fails to congeal into a heady structural puzzle, or into a particularly affecting exercise in female empathy. Rated: 2/4 Oct 10, 2007 Full Review Robin Clifford Reeling Reviews The mix of the endless rehearsals, Marcelline's lack of grip both personally and professionally and her surreal imaginings make for an uneven film. Rated: C+ Jul 11, 2008 Full Review Laura Clifford Reeling Reviews Valeria Bruni Tedeschi does a terrific job with her portrayal of an actress who has trouble unraveling her life from her performance, but the setting she gives this gem doesn't show it off in its best light. Rated: B- Jul 6, 2008 Full Review Marlow Stern Manhattan Movie Magazine there is what we can call the House of Sand and Fog problem: this woman is way too attractive to be in this desperate a situation Rated: 2/5 Dec 18, 2007 Full Review Boyd van Hoeij european-films.net Set in the bourgeois and vaguely intellectual Parisian bubble of Bruni Tedeschi's alter ego, it veers more towards comedy as the film progresses, earning good-hearted laughs as well as, well, whatever one may feel towards this particular milieu.

Audience Member Kırklı yaÅlardaki çocuk sahibi olmak isteyen maccelline nin bir filmin seçmelerine katılmasıyle baÅlayıp giden film, 2007 yılında cannes film festivalinde özel jà 1/4ri ödà 1/4là 1/4nà 1/4 kazandı. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 02/07/23 Full Review Audience Member It is supposed to show deep emotion, I think, but doesn't. It's that european, french-type of classic, with a little less nudity than expected and the exact type of dry silence that's supposed to mean something. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 01/23/23 Full Review Audience Member Started off pretty good...... Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 01/15/23 Full Review Audience Member <a></a> <img src="http://s3.amazonaws.com/auteurs_production/stills/1740/original.jpg?1289430833" width="240" border="0" /> Rated 4 out of 5 stars 01/30/23 Full Review Audience Member It reminded me of some Simone de Beauvoir´s novels whose (part of the) storyline and (some) characters have connections with the theater. </br> </br> Rated 3 out of 5 stars 01/13/23 Full Review Audience Member Frustrating...but compellingly put forward.
