It is a haunting portrait of emotional undeadness. Read full review

Rigorously structured and glacially paced, this sophomore feature from Andrea Pallaoro (after his 2015 family tragedy, “Medeas”) is a minimalist portrait of brutal isolation and extreme emotional anguish. Read full review

Susan Wloszczyna

Mar 20, 2018

The veteran English actress, 72, a onetime femme fatale who has matured into a peerless performer, gives a first-rate lesson in the art of acting, as a woman crumbling under duress after her husband is incarcerated. And yet the Belgian-set drama, by Italian director Andrea Pallaoro, could also be called self-indulgent, plodding and minimalist, in a big way. Read full review

This is an impressively rigorous exercise, in which the director’s sober formalism finds a kindred spirit in his leading lady’s studied, secretive restraint. Read full review

There’s nothing else to watch or care about in the entire film anyway. Once again, a great actress is on her own. Read full review

Andrea Pallaoro’s frigid portrait of a woman in crisis is more a calculated exercise in formalism than an achievement in storytelling. His well-composed images of loneliness are cerebrally satisfying but lack emotional heft. Read full review

There is a real seed of dramatic possibility in Hannah, but Pallaoro smothers it beneath the lacquer of the film’s fastidiously mannered minimalism. Read full review

However, as the film unfolds a superlative Charlotte Rampling draws the viewer into her small and somewhat tragic world. The film has little dialogue, no big action scenes and a lot is left unspoken as to why her life is as it is. Reasons are actually not important as the film is more interested in showing us this character gradually breaking down due to her situation rather than from what caused it. Hints are given, but it is finally left to an intelligent audience to come up with any answers.… Expand
