Matt Fagerholm RogerEbert.com I came to McGuckian's film knowing nothing about Gray and left feeling frustrated that I hadn't learned more about her, apart from the boorish chauvinists in her life. Rated: 1.5/4 Jun 2, 2020 Full Review Alissa Simon Variety Sadly, the fact that Brady and Francesco Scianna, the actor portraying her lover Badovici evince absolutely no on-screen chemistry undercuts audience belief in their great passion. Jun 2, 2020 Full Review Donald Clarke Irish Times Too many Cote d'Azure exteriors are shot in weird soft focus that suggests comic dream sequences from Absolutely Fabulous. Rated: 2/5 May 27, 2016 Full Review Carla Hay Culture Mix If the point of the movie was to give the proper respect to [Eileen] Gray because she experienced gender discrimination, that intention is ruined by ... making the story's narration come from the sexist egomaniac who tried to oppress her in real life. Jul 21, 2020 Full Review Gary M. Kramer Gay City News There is much to be desired from this wan, stagy biopic. The period clothes and architectural and design details can be appreciated, but the aggressively soft-focus cinematography is as unsharpened as the characters. Jul 4, 2020 Full Review Roger Moore Movie Nation Insufferable. Rated: 1.5/4 May 22, 2020 Full Review Read all reviews
