A fine motion picture -- simple, direct, and offering truth.

04/09/05
In the tradition of Jean Renoir, Eric Rohmer or Robert Altman, Look at Me is a multi-character comedy of manners -- or, more accurately, ill-manners.
04/08/05
Top CriticOne of the many marvels of this keenly observed family saga is the rapidness and economy with which it establishes a disturbing father-daughter dynamic.
04/08/05
Top CriticIt builds, almost imperceptibly, to a vision of a world in which no one looks at anyone, at least deeply enough to see beyond the trappings of beauty or fame.
04/08/05
It's funny what the French cherry-pick from the U.S. culture they otherwise despise.
04/08/05
Not many movie scripts have the psychological complexity of a first-class novel, and those that do tend to speak in fluent French.
04/08/05
A marvelous, uncommonly observant, and unexpectedly rousing group portrait from writer-director-actors Agnès Jaoui and Jean-Pierre Bacri.
04/08/05
Top CriticAn insightful portrait on how proximity to fame can change the way people react with one another.
04/08/05
It's a sweet little movie that shines with the brightness of a tiny jewel.
04/07/05
It just goes to show what you can get with a talented cast, intelligent writing and solid direction.
04/05/05
Gets under the skin of these varied individuals and reveals them in rich complexity and highly individuated quirkiness
04/04/05
The multitalented Jaoui and Bacri excel on every level; her direction is efficient and unobtrusive, their script dissects the nuances of corruption by celebrity with a razor-sharp scalpel, and they deliver a pair of subtly unsparing performances.
04/01/05
A wryly funny and insightful film that works on many different levels.
04/01/05
This audience-pleaser is smart and acerbic.
04/01/05
Top CriticJaoui and Bacri skewer celebrity worship, sensitively explore women's body issues, delve into relationship dynamics and brilliantly examine the myriad ways people deceive themselves.
04/01/05
The plot, what little there is, moves at a snail's pace, and the subtitles don't help speed things along.
04/01/05
Look at Me...states the film's theme: the difficulty of getting...attention and the horrible realization that, when it comes, it usually comes for the wrong reasons.
04/01/05
Jaoui's witty comedy of manners has an empathy that recalls the works of Woody Allen in the 1980s.
