The spirit of medieval drama lives in Rohmer's utterly unique, flagrantly theatrical adaptation… will enchant medieval enthusiasts and bewilder others.

The naïve Perceval's odyssey is depicted as a moral investigation, but is shot with a deft touch exhibiting great humor, wit and style.

Ultimately Rohmer's film is an intimate moral investigation, shot with an assured lightness of touch typical of the director.

Eric Rohmer's least typical and least popular film also happens to be his best...
