      Roger Ebert Chicago Sun-Times You can get away with all sorts of improbabilities in a plot if you crank up the style so it's clear the movie is having fun with itself. But Scene of the Crime has an earnest and realistic tone. Rated: 2.5/4 Jan 1, 2000 Full Review Jeffrey M. Anderson Combustible Celluloid The overall presentation of the film is certainly competent and even somewhat captivating.

      Audience Member C'est le film qui m'a fait découvrir Téchiné. J'adore! Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 01/24/23 Full Review Audience Member While this is not one of Andre Techine's finest films, I enjoyed Deneuve as a mother in rural France whose troublemaker son is the eternal 'boy who cried wolf.' When he is attacked by two prison escapees, nobody believes him. It all starts to fall apart a bit by the end, but it's an entertaining melodrama from Techine that I had never seen. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 02/03/23 Full Review Audience Member Le lieu du crime n'est pas bien différent des Téchiné habituel et à ce sens, cela fait sa force et ses faiblesses. On se réjouit et on est séduit par le charme Téchiné, mais on est difficilement surpris par l'ensemble du récit. D'ailleurs, Téchiné a bien du mal à encore surprendre depuis Les roseaux sauvages ou encore J'embrasse pas. Comme à l'habitude il réussit toutefois à obtenir de superbes performances d'acteurs. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 02/18/23 Full Review Audience Member for the couple Catherine Deneuve et Wadeck Stanczack directed by the delicate andre téchiné Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/05/23 Full Review Read all reviews Post a rating
