    Best Argentine film I've seen since Nueve Reinas... Is a tough yet realistic vision of solitude and distress in the Patagonia.

    Just a delightful movie with many smiles and chuckles. No serious point or message but most moviegoers will go away feeling very satisfied.

    The best movie I've seen in years. Saw it last night, and am still stunned, can't get it out of my mind. I can't imagine how your voters can have been so ungenerous with their ratings.

    The english translation of the title is incorrect: "minimas" means "smallest", not "intimate," and these three stories are about the smallest you'll ever sit through. Nearly as boring as the Patagonian countryside where it takes place.

    Intimate Stories stays doggedly, purposefully minor, in part because director Carlos Sorin and screenwriter Pablo Solarz want to explore the casual interactions of people doing nothing.

    Endowed with captivating simplicity, gentle humor, rich humanity and infectious generosity of spirit.
  3. But while this piquant, tapas-like movie (a 2003 film- festival favorite only now being released) asserts that landscape is a kind of destiny from which one cannot escape, Sorin takes delighted, serious interest in how far a person can advance psychologically, even if all roads lead back to a home at the end of the world.
