A Woman's Life is a beautiful, bittersweet reminder of the most euphoric and most heartwrenching parts of life. Full Review

Rating: 3/5 -- A respectful adaptation, yet one that fails to translate the intensity of Maupassant's writing. Full Review

Rating: 3/5 -- A textured film that may just be too dour for its own good. Full Review

Rating: 4/5 -- The significance of some recurring images...only crystalizes as events unfold. The accumulated detail of the period recreation feels uncomfortably authentic. Full Review

Rating: 3/5 -- Credit to Stéphane Brizé for an impressive piece of filmmaking with a refreshingly contemporary approach. Full Review
Time Out
Jan 10, 2018
Rating: 4/5 -- It's marvellously done, with mournful aquatint colours, spare music (on what sounds like a spinet) and elliptical tableaux that keep you creatively guessing. Full Review

Rating: 3/5 -- What saves this from being a dull downer is the lightness of touch in the direction and performances, the spontaneity of the dialogue as characters discuss dress designs or household expenditure. Full Review
