    Truly a gem! It's indecisive and free. Very enjoyable film.

    Techine is a masterful director of actors, excelling in making you care about all the characters and their lives (the least interesting being the central plot, and Depardieu's character). Remarkably satfisying, even though--or because?-- the stories are left open-ended.

    Swirlling and human film. It's charged and moving. I loved it. Nice to see Deneuve and Depardieu together again. Téchiné is brilliant.

  1. A thoughtful and reflective love story about the impact of time on true love.

    A Cathererine Deneuve-Gerard Depardieu vehicle that leaves ample room for interesting supporting characters, this moody, more-bitter-than-sweet ode to anxiety is intense adult fare reinforced by effective no frills lensing.
  3. If the title, knee-jerk cast, pop-song intro, and schmaltzy plotline of his new film Changing Times is any indication, he's (André Téchiné) now the French mainstream, the premier Gallic pilot of high-toned soap opera.
