John T 10/28/2021 This film does an amazing job showing a man who literally cannot give of himself emotionally. Daniel Autueil is fantastic. See more 08/19/2020 Everything simmering under the surface is always done best by the French and Un Coeur En Hiver is no different; Beart is mesmerizing and worthy of all the turmoil See more 12/08/2016 Kind of frustrating. Like a not as good version of Eric Rohmer. But not bad. See more 01/20/2015 Me quedè con la duda con el personaje de Daniel Auteuil, quien en su sano juicio dice no a Emmanuelle Beart. Un corazòn en invierno es una tìpica pelìcula francesa que se adentra en el estudio de sus personajes con bonita mùsica de Ravel. See more 06/10/2014 A beautiful film that only comes once in a lifetime. See more 04/06/2014 How very French to dabble in the affairs of the threes --the beautiful Emannuelle Beart, the stoic Daniel Auteuil, and the lover who's quite forgettable. Sautet tells the story delicately through Ravel's sonata, and this part is beautifully done. Definitely an arthouse sort of film you wouldn't want to watch on a rainy day. See more Read all reviews
