Everything from the bonfire onward is Spectacular. Unfortunately the drawn out nature of the first more distant and detached half makes for a very tedious start to the film. Overall though, the cinematography is beautiful and the acting extremely on point. The ending scene reminded me of Youth the way it used live music to generate such strong emotions. Ultimately I just want it to be 15 or so minutes shorter. A tighter edit on the first half would have really made it live up to the hype.

I really liked how they took their time to craft a beautifully romantic story about forbidden love. Adèle Haenel is a rare beauty. She and Noémie Merlant gave exceptional performances. It felt authentic and genuine. I was engaging and entertaining. The ending seemed somewhat insufficient but managed to reveal their enduring love for each other. The actual portrait of a lady on fire shown in the movie was quite inadequate. I like the movie poster better. Worthwhile. I might watch it again.

A simple tale of forbidden love, expertly crafted and well-acted. There are powerful, ethereal moments, but the movie doesn't have anything profound to say. I wish there was more to get me fully enthralled. I was hoping for greatness after hearing the glowing reviews, and while I liked it, it falls short of expectations.

The poet's choice cannot be made without having known to begin with the lover's predicament. The imprint of a figure, a face, a time and place. The formative wellspring from which experience is inscribed into art. This film's generally mannered restraint amplifies the potency of several striking images and sequences.

Invites you to examine the leads (their conversations, their faces in profile, their bodies in silhouette, their glances) just as carefully as the film itself looks at the paintings in it. This effect is so strong that when they are describing each other's mannerisms I felt as if I already knew the answers just as they did. Then it shows those last two absolute gut punches of final scenes. And then it stops. Or does it? Damn.

This is an undoubtedly beautiful film. Everything about it shows the filmmaker's passion for the craft and love for her characters. I just didn't believe the conflict in the third act. It floated to the top, felt unmotivated, and went away in two scenes.

Expecting a combination of 'Persona' and 'La Belle Noiseuse' (perhaps unfairly), I was somewhat disappointed. The scenery is amazing (wonderfully captured by Claire Mathon) and the performances, particularly from the two leads, are powerful but cannot save the film from some clunky moments (the whole premise of the film as a flashback and the forced sense of closure with the page number of the book painted in the picture). The depiction of the painting process also lacked authenticity.
