      Odie Henderson Boston Globe “Driving Madeleine” is held together by the funny and dignified performances of its two leads. Rated: 3/4 Jan 19, 2024 Full Review Randy Myers San Jose Mercury News Madeleine is a showcase for its two leads; both are exceptional. So is the film, which gently reminds us to feel compassion for others since we never quite know where another person has been or where they might be going. Rated: 3/4 Jan 17, 2024 Full Review Christian Zilko indieWire While each flashback gets more and more grating, Line Renaud’s charm makes the present an increasingly welcoming place to return to. Rated: B- Jan 12, 2024 Full Review Amber Wilkinson Eye for Film The destination of the film might feel like a bit of a foregone conclusion but the graceful and sometimes unpredictable manner in which Carion arrives at it is impressive. Rated: 4/5 Apr 16, 2024 Full Review Joe Friar Fort Worth Report Paris becomes a sentimental journey into the past. Exceptional performances by legendary French actors and friends Line Renaud and Dany Boon. Rated: 3/4 Feb 9, 2024 Full Review John Urbancich JMuvies With Paris as the gorgeous co-star to the terrific Dany Boon and ninetysomething Grande Dame Line Renaud, their day-long trip together becomes a 90-minute beauty to behold.

      Lynn So nice to see Paris. The actress was unknown to me but she was beautiful. Very sweet and heart warming film Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/06/24 Full Review Dr. J An excellent bittersweet tale with both laughs and tears. On the surface, it appears like "Driving Miss Daisy" and indeed it is an exploration to 2 individuals who come from very different worlds. But it goes to places unexpected to reveal each the strengths as well as flaws, of each. Excellent acting, and nice ride through Paris! Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/05/24 Full Review Michael I found Madeleine's back story a total surprise and very touching. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/05/24 Full Review Ina Sweet and touching... Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/04/24 Full Review Barbara Poignant and moving and made in the aesthetic of the old French movies we all loved. Many people sat through the end of the credits, and at the very end we all started talking about how beautiful this film was. When does that ever happen these days? Truly a lovely film. OK. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/04/24 Full Review Daniel Lyne Renaud at 95 years old was very touching, The road trip showed us the streets of Paris.
