    Not high art, but it's a lot of fun, and whimsical in the way good French movies are.

    Beautiful, exhilerating tale of love, life and the mysterious workings of the mind...

    Gorgeously shot, quirky, romantic, unconventional love story. I loved it to bits because it was so different from anything I've seen before, although it has a French new wave 1960s influence.

    Girl on the Bridge, with its doomed art-house romanticism and echoes of Fellini, may not be the deepest piece of filmmaking out there now, but it is easily the most intoxicating. Take the leap.

    Leconte (''Ridicule'') gives his heart to the luck of romance, to the dream state visual style of Fellini, and, most lyrically, to the passion of the dagger point swoon.

    Leconte's visual instincts are so impressive that they outstrip his story, leaving us flushed and dazzled, but also, as after a long night of champagne and baccarat (to say nothing of other irresponsible pleasures), hungry, tired, and homesick.
