Critic Reviews

The Film Stage Rory O'Connor

Aug 14, 2021

It is a film of two contrasting halves: Solange’s warm and fuzzy naivety and her cold coming of age. Read full review

Richard Brody

The exemplary figure of Ropert’s film is Solange’s retreat into a sharply expressive silence, captured in poised and precisely composed images, that resounds as clearly as a cry of agony. Read full review

Natalia Winkelman

Mar 23, 2023

As Solange’s teenage woes bubble up and then cool to a simmer, Ropert reveals a knack for calibrating emotion. It can be agony to accept one’s parents as people with needs and faults all their own, and Ropert observes Solange’s coming-of-age lucidly and without judgment. Read full review

Jay Weissberg

Aug 10, 2021

Ropert’s understanding of how children furtively watch the adults around them, soaking up the friction, is well-observed and the best thing in this otherwise insipid film that perversely discards any shred of naturalism for an outdated and phony ingenuousness. Even the performances are airless, and consequently there’s no emotional investment in a family whose rapport is so clunkily established. Read full review
