      darren h Great casting and directing! A masterpiece. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 03/31/23 Full Review steve d Nothing special. Some strong performances but I never felt any kind of connection to the characters, and thus didn't care about the film. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 03/30/23 Full Review geoff a What an amazing film. I need to watch it again. A real jaw-dropping moment towards the end that I didn't see coming. Brilliantly acted too. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 03/31/23 Full Review Audience Member Filme forte ,denso.A angustia da protagonista, quase sem palavras,nos deixa perturbado. Comovente! Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 01/13/23 Full Review Audience Member The acting is fine but there is something contrived and self-conscious about this examination of guilt and loss. It wants to be Eric Rohmer but it's far too manipulative of the audience to succeed. A shame. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 01/27/23 Full Review Audience Member A unbelievable performances from Kristin scott Thomas, pushes this slow paced drama into a class of its own. Gripping and deppressing. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 01/14/23 Full Review Read all reviews Post a rating

      Ben Kenigsberg Time Out Rated: 1/5 Nov 18, 2011 Full Review Melissa Anderson Time Out Rated: 4/5 Nov 17, 2011 Full Review Josh Rosenblatt Austin Chronicle Remarkable directorial debut of French novelist Claudel. Rated: 4/5 Feb 27, 2009 Full Review Jason Best Movie Talk I've Loved You So Long is partly a mystery (what did Juliette do that was so terrible?), but more importantly it is also a study of rehabilitation and of sisterly love. Nov 21, 2020 Full Review Mattie Lucas From the Front Row A remarkable film marked by remarkable performances that stand strong among the year's finest. Rated: 3.5/4 Jul 7, 2019 Full Review Kelly Jane Torrance Washington Times While Jonathan Demme's Rachel Getting Married was a self-indulgent melodrama, French writer-director Philippe Claudel's I've Loved You So Long is an elegant and moving family drama. Rated: 3.5/4 Dec 12, 2018 Full Review Read all reviews
