Reviews for A Short Film About Love
1 - 14 (sorted by critic A-Z)
Far more compelling and beautiful than the Dekalog episode which shares its story.
08/04/08
It's well-crafted and satisfying, even if it lacks the depth of Red.
08/07/04
Top CriticIt speaks with the tranquility of a parable.
03/20/04
Its picture of a world where people spy on one another reverberates with a post-cold-war paranoia, evoking the chilling notion that privacy, like love, may also be just an illusion.
08/30/04
Top CriticOverall, Kieslowski has crafted a compelling portrait of love, that weed that forces its strange way through life's hardest cement.
08/07/04
A Short Film About Love, despite its title, has more to do with guilt and remorse and manipulation; it might not be about love at all.
09/01/09
A remarkable 1988 Polish feature expanded by Krzysztof Kieslowski from his film The Decalogue.
08/07/04
Top CriticIt's an absolutely stunning film that blows you away with its droll humor and its uncovering of sublime emotional truths.
09/05/07
For the characters in this film, love is a feeling of attachment and necessity, an emotion that is potentially harmful.
04/19/04
A creepy adolescent (Olaf Lubaszenko) obsessively spies on an older woman (Grazyna Szapolowska) until a strange symbiosis develops between the two.
