Critic Reviews

Jonathan Holland

Pons has aimed for a performance-driven drama whose virtues are of the small-scale, low-key variety, with the director working within narrow dramatic limits as always but here doing so brilliantly. Read full review

Kevin Thomas

An elegant work, Food of Love is as consistently engaging as it is revealing. Read full review

Mick LaSalle

Elusive and compelling. Read full review

TV Guide Magazine Ken Fox

Once the excellent Rhys and Corunder are off-screen, the film's overall staginess and the inconsistent work of the supporting cast become glaringly apparent. Read full review

Dave Kehr

Kimberley Jones

Ernest Hardy

Crushingly airless film -- Food chokes on its own depiction of upper-crust decorum. Read full review
