It isn't necessarily an easy watch, but thanks to Netzer's interesting direction and a riveting performance from Gheorghiu, Child's Pose is rewarding.

Razvan Radulescu's screenplay is rich in irony and reversals, highlighting tensions between generations, and between the wealthy elite and the people whose lives are blighted by the elite's unthinking behaviour and desperation to cling to its status. October 1, 2014 | Rating: 3/5 | Full Review…

Despite these effective touches, the film eventually becomes a bit monotonous: it's clear from very early on that Cornelia is a terrible person, but this doesn't stop Netzer from hammering home the point. May 19, 2014 | Rating: 3/5 | Full Review…

A Romanian political allegory - in Romanian - might sound like tough sledding, but thanks to a searing performance by Luminita Gheorghiu, "Child's Pose" is anything but. April 3, 2014 | Rating: 4/5 | Full Review…

Netzer crafts not only a chilling story of family dysfunction, but also an illuminating look into the corruption and decay of the Romanian bourgeoisie - without ever overplaying his hand. It all appears so effortless, when in fact it's so skillful. March 20, 2014 | Rating: 4/4 | Full Review…

It's an acting tour de force and she (Gheorghiu) carries the film in a terrifying portrayal of both obsessive mother-love and also the symbolic privilege of her position June 7, 2019 | Rating: 4/5 | Full Review…

Child's Pose locks you into its complex tale of emotional (and familial) blackmail from the very beginning, whilst never feeling the need to descend into out-and-out melodramatic. March 5, 2019 | Rating: 4/5 | Full Review…

Filled with strong performances, especially from Gheorghiu, who makes out of Cornelia something more than just a campy overbearing matron. August 31, 2018 | Rating: 3.5/5 | Full Review…

From a beginning that merely sketches the outlines of Cornelia's upper-class existence - she could be a contender for "The Real Housewives of Bucharest" - "Child's Pose" takes on more emotional substance as it develops. February 17, 2018 | Full Review…
