Critic Reviews

Dennis Lim

Münch's characters are given to a certain rapt, unwieldy thoughtfulness, and accordingly, his films cultivate a mood of almost trancelike introspection. Read full review

Jonathan Rosenbaum

Months after seeing this, I still feel I know most of these people as if they were old friends. Read full review

Roger Ebert

Munch's screenplay is tenderly observant of his characters. He watches them as they float within the seas of their personalities. His scenes are short and often unexpected. The story unfolds in sidelong glances. Read full review

Erin Meister

Stunning performances help make The Sleepy Time Gal a thoughtful, moving piece that faces difficult issues with honesty and beauty. Read full review

Michael Wilmington

Playing a role of almost Bergmanesque intensity -- a tough, lonely woman dying of cancer as she examines her past -- Bisset is both convincing and radiant. Read full review

Ken Fox

Excellent performances from Jacqueline Bisset and Martha Plimpton grace this deeply touching melodrama. Read full review

V.A. Musetto

Too-convenient coincidences hurt the movie's credibility. A melodramatic script best left to cable TV doesn't help, either. Read full review
