Robert Daniels RogerEbert.com 2d
Radu Jude’s "Diary of a Chambermaid" sees the director in its sweetest, most optimistic register. Go to Full Review Tim Grierson Screen International 6d
Just as Mirbeau’s novel decried the disparities between the haves and have-nots in his era, in his own subdued way Jude argues that that divide has only grown worse in the last 125 years. Go to Full Review Jordan Mintzer The Hollywood Reporter 6d
Like Buñuel, with whom he shares certain affinities as a filmmaker, Jude sets his movie in the present and takes plenty of liberties with the original text, throwing much of the novel’s plot out the window. But he still manages to capture its essence. Go to Full Review Sarp Sozdinler In Review Online 1d
The Diary of a Chambermaid may not be Jude’s most surprising provocation, but it seems like his freshest. Go to Full Review Luke Hicks The Film Stage 1d
At 94 minutes and with a barrel of laughs in tow, Diary of a Chambermaid goes by pretty quickly, but comes to grow stale and doesn’t amount to more than a series of funny sequences. Go to Full Review Marya E. Gates Cool People Have Feelings, Too. (Substack) 2d
An insightful and absurd comedy of manners that sinks its sharp teeth into the realities of our current class war Go to Full Review Read all reviews
