The film's structure and resolute lack of closure deeply subvert American expectations of how a movie should be, how a movie should work and how a story is told. But it's worth a look, however quizzical.

Sautet makes movies about the you that you think only you know.

[Sautet's] insights into human nature are revealing, if extremely subtle.

Writer-director Sautet's great achievement is to introduce a world of undefinable impulses; the two actors' great achievement is to step into that world and experience them.

Impeccably performed psychodrama about the search for intimacy.

It's one sign of Sautet's success that, though he presents neither character as especially admirable or exceptional, he makes us care about them a great deal.

Top CriticIt glows with sorrowful humor in its look at two people who seem just right for each other but don't have time on their side.
