Longing intrigues because it presents an outwardly decent man falling equally in love with two women but eschews simplistic judgments. Jun 22, 2007 | Rating: 3/5

[Director] Grisebach makes good use of her low-budget and nonprofessional leads. Just as the story is minimalist, so too is the documentary-like film's look: long static takes and tons of close-ups. Jun 22, 2007 | Rating: 3/4 | Full Review…

Grisebach's magnificent and moving chamber drama is a roaring mouse that offers ample room for extrapolation though its episodic editing, with Dardenne-style observations so astute that typically inexpressible passions and angst become raw and visible. Jun 20, 2007 | Full Review…

It is shot like a documentary and set in an almost comically mundane smalltown, but it deals with elemental forces and grand, romantic themes. May 19, 2007 | Rating: 4/5 | Full Review…

It would be wrong to overpraise Longing; it's a modest film, but richly rewarding and full of promise for the future. Oct 28, 2006 | Full Review…

The restrained visual style (you could almost call it icy) conveys an all but clinical objectivity-there are numerous segments in the film that could easily pass as documentary. Jun 17, 2013 | Full Review…

simple and hushed, and that might be the key to the whole dang thing. Jun 21, 2007 | Rating: 4/5

A German film strongly influenced by the Dardenne brothers. Using nonprofessionals in a naturalistic setting, it tells about the consequences of "careless love". Jun 5, 2007 | Full Review…

Challenges the usual guilt-free male narrative inventions, the misogynistic cliches about the conniving other women who tempt men to stray from their marriages, and conversely the frigid or shrewish wives who drive them into adultery. May 26, 2007 | Full Review…

Sehnsucht is one of those rare films for which the overused axiom "less is more" is totally justified. With her latest feature, Grisebach could give the Dardenne brothers a run for their money. Apr 25, 2006 | Full Review…
