      Andrew Sarris Observer ... the conceit works beautifully with the right personalities, talented and uninhibited, engaged in its execution. Apr 28, 2006 Full Review James Berardinelli ReelViews Nathalie... offers compelling food for thought, with a little visual stimulation thrown in on the side. Rated: 3/4 Apr 14, 2006 Full Review Kyle Smith New York Post Beguiling and surprising. Rated: 3.5/4 Apr 14, 2006 Full Review Kathy Fennessy Video Librarian Magazine Nathalie could enhance an academic film studies collection focused on French cinema, particularly films made by women... Rated: 3/5 Sep 20, 2022 Full Review Miles Fielder The List Despite Fontaine and Fieschi's best intentions, Nathalie ultimately plays as the kind of film it purports to deconstruct. That's a shame, given the quality of the ménage á trios of leads. Rated: 3/5 Apr 18, 2019 Full Review Dan Sallitt Senses of Cinema One fears at this point that [director Anne] Fontaine's considerable talent has been submerged for the sake of Euro-prestige.

      Audience Member Interesting analysis of trust and mistrust between husband and wife and between women; everyone underplays the drama to a simmer which tamps down any drama or stakes Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 01/30/23 Full Review Audience Member Emmanuelle Beart, you need your mouth washed out! Nathalie is one smutty movie. It deals with a suspicious wife who suspects her husband is having an affair with a sexy stripper (Emmanuelle Beart). In order to find out, she pays the stripper to reveal the sordid, smutty details, which she happily accepts. The husband (Gerard Depardieu) is insistent that he is not having an affair so who is telling the truth? Rated 3 out of 5 stars 01/26/23 Full Review Audience Member A suspicious wife suspects her husband is having an affair with a sexy stripper (Emmanuelle Beart).

Rated 3 out of 5 stars 01/26/23 Full Review Audience Member Cleverly crafted and exceptionally well acted psychological study of marriage, jealousy and sexuality. Anne Fontaine's little potboiler offers a great of challenging insights that will linger long after the movie ends. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 02/22/23 Full Review Audience Member At least it makes a bit more sense than the English remake.
