      Tim Robey Daily Telegraph (UK) It’s an egghead exercise, both scrambled and undercooked. Rated: 2/5 Feb 22, 2024 Full Review Peter Howell Toronto Star [Atom Egoyan] could have simply filmed his latest Canadian Opera Company remounting of “Salome,” a visceral Bible extrapolation... Instead he chose to make fresh drama out of it, syncing his screen and stage passions to mesmerizing effect. Rated: 3.5/4 Sep 18, 2023 Full Review Martin Tsai TheWrap “Seven Veils” feels like a true return to form for Egoyan, almost as if “Salome” has inspired Egoyan’s entire filmography. Sep 17, 2023 Full Review Stephen A. Russell Sunday Arts Magazine Podcast (JOY 94.9) Amanda Seyfried puts in a career-best performance... if you love films that play with breaking the boundaries of form... theatre geeks will love it. Apr 1, 2024 Full Review Sarah Manvel Critic's Notebook All “Seven Veils” offers is the sense of performance, of something reenacted so many times it has been bleached clean. Mar 15, 2024 Full Review Stephanie Bunbury Deadline Hollywood Daily Egoyan habitually gives explosive emotions a wide berth, refusing to allow characters or audience any kind of catharsis. It is an unforgiving kind of stringency... [But] for those of us with a taste for it, that coldness is satisfyingly bracing. Feb 23, 2024 Full Review Read all reviews
