Hart manages to capture those uniquely intimate and complicated friendships that crop up between teachers and students... Rabe does a masterful job of conveying Miss Stevens' fragility. Sep 22, 2016 | Full Review…

It acknowledges that the best versions of ourselves are often written-sometimes by the hand of other people-when we're not looking, when a third-act plot twist jerks the wheel left. Sep 15, 2016 | Rating: B | Full Review…

Acknowledges that the boundary between instructor and charge is a necessary but complicated one, especially when messy, needy, well-meaning human beings are on both sides of that line. Sep 15, 2016 | Full Review…

It may not come off as very warm or funny despite its being billed as a comedy, yet Miss Stevens is a satisfying film both in front of and behind the camera. Aug 6, 2018 | Full Review…

Miss Stevens is a sensitive foray into the teacher drama that doesn't leap over convention so much as gives it a warm hug, anchored by an entrancing performance by Lily Rabe. Nov 19, 2017 | Full Review…

Hart imbues the film with both a natural visual harmony, as well as the simplicity of a lasting message: There are no easy answers when dealing with the complexities of other human beings. Sep 29, 2016 | Rating: 6.8/10 | Full Review…

Very tender display of a passionate but emotionally damaged young attractive teacher's relationship with her students. While this teacher tries to maintain a professional distance, she finds it hard to do when she has a soft spot for one student in particular ï¿ 1/2"ï¿ 1/2" Billy, a very intelligent, sensitive, but troubled teen. Billy "gets" this teacher and sees her for who she is, but Miss Stevens pushes him away to avoid being inappropriate. Billy actually gives Miss Stevens good advice, telling her to take care of herself and not be so cerebral. He jumps on the hotel bed. She thinks he's crazy, until she, too, jumps on the bed. He gets off his meds, and thus, can begin to feel happy (and sad) again, and not just the flatline emotionless void that the meds cause. But Miss Stevens reports him, pushes him away, forces a coldness between the two of them... all so she can be appropriate and professional. It's rather sad.
