Mademoiselle Chambon has not been reviewed by Broad National Press
Stephen Holden, New York Times: OUTSTANDING "...a complexity and tension that transcend words.... exquisitely acted... This small, nearly perfect film is a reminder that personal upheavals are as consequential in people's lives as shattering world events." (Read the full review...) 656 words, 05/28/10 Kenneth Turan, Los Angeles Times: OUTSTANDING "...an exquisite chamber piece made with the kind of sensitivity and nuance that's become almost a lost art.... Impeccably directed by Stephane Brize..." (Read the full review...) 770 words, 07/23/10 V.A. Musetto, New York Post: OUTSTANDING (cg) "Sandrine Kiberlain is a fragile beauty and wonderful French actress who is not as well known here as she should be." (Read the full review...) 237 words, 05/28/10 John Anderson, New York Newsday: OUTSTANDING (cg) "...very French, very moving, and made for people who know something about life - including that it occasionally goes off the rails." (Read the full review...) 302 words, 06/18/10 Bill Stamets, Chicago Sun-Times: OUTSTANDING (cg) "...a masterly look at a love with an uncertain destination." (Read the full review...) 272 words, 09/17/10 Michelle Orange, Village Voice/LA Weekly: GOOD (NOT GREAT) "...director Stéphane Brizé creates an atmosphere that cradles the delicate connection that develops between her main characters... The film's operative tension (will they or won't they?) wavers toward the end..." (Read the full review...) 220 words, 05/25/10
Michael O'Sullivan, Washington Post: GOOD (NOT GREAT) (cg) "Few words are exchanged; the relationship plays out mostly through telling silences and sidelong glances. It isn't love at first sight. Heck, it might not even be love." (Read the full review...) 553 words, 06/25/10 Rob Nelson, Minneapolis Star-Tribune: GOOD (NOT GREAT) (cg) "Director Stéphane Brizé does score a nifty variation on the clichéd rushing-to-meet-destiny climax. But this encounter, brief indeed at a mere 90 minutes, doesn't fully convince." (Read the full review...) 171 words, 08/27/10 Mark Feeney, Boston Globe: VERY GOOD (cg) "...shows great restraint." (Read the full review...) 518 words, 09/17/10 Mick LaSalle, San Francisco Chronicle: OUTSTANDING (cg) "...with such detail and specificity of emotion that it couldn't feel more real unless it were happening to you." (Read the full review...) 531 words, 09/10/10 Stan Hall, Portland Oregonian: VERY GOOD (cg) "Stephané Brizé's drama about a married construction worker's slowly developing affair with his son's schoolteacher is the kind of movie the French do better than anyone." (Read the full review...) 120 words, 11/05/10 Joe Williams, St. Louis Post-Dispatch: VERY GOOD (cg) "What makes the movie distinctive is that almost all of the drama is unspoken and gestural: an attentive ear, a cupped cheek. And the most powerful moment involves the unacknowledged presence of a packed bag." (Read the full review...) 218 words, 10/08/10 Tom Long, Detroit News: VERY GOOD (cg) "...unquestionably French -- it even climaxes in a train station -- but it's also sublimely universal. There's a part of each of us in this small, quiet film." (Read the full review...) 304 words, 10/29/10 Michael Sragow, Baltimore Sun: OUTSTANDING (cg) " 'If music be the food of love, play on' becomes achingly real in the exquisite 'Mademoiselle Chambon.' " (Read the full review...) 445 words, 06/25/10 Rene Rodriguez, Miami Herald: MODERATE (cg) "Although it deals with some monumental themes, 'Mademoiselle Chambon' also feels wispy and inconsequential." (Read the full review...) 438 words, 09/10/10
Michelle Orange, Village Voice/LA Weekly: GOOD (NOT GREAT) "...director Stéphane Brizé creates an atmosphere that cradles the delicate connection that develops between her main characters... The film's operative tension (will they or won't they?) wavers toward the end..." (Read the full review...) 220 words, 05/25/10 Brett Michel, Boston Phoenix: OUTSTANDING (cg) "...strikes a delicate chord in Stéphane Brizé's subtle and exquisitely acted adaptation of Eric Holder's novel." (Read the full review...) 122 words, 09/17/10

Stephen Farber, Hollywood Reporter: OUTSTANDING "...riveting.... All of the characters burst out of stereotype.... By the end of this modest but compelling film, viewers are likely to feel at once drained and deeply satisfied."
