I Knew Her Well Reviews
San Francisco Chronicle
Mick LaSalle
An insightful document that recognized the strains, pitfalls and hypocrisies of the sexual revolution even as it was beginning.
Slant Magazine
Clayton Dillard
Antonio Pietrangeli's structuring logic proceeds from a philosophical, rather than character-based, foundation, causing a chill to pervade the entire film.
Q Network Film Desk
James Kendrick
Adriana's essential vacuity, central as it is the film's point, doesn't give us enough to hold onto, so by the time the narrative is winding its way to its climax, everything has blurred into one long rush of nothing.
Under the Radar
Austin Trunick
A fine motion picture, although Sandrelli's performance is its only truly eye-opening feature.
Dennis Schwartz Movie Reviews
Dennis Schwartz
The grim drama works because of a star performance by Sandrelli.
The Film Stage
Forrest Cardamenis
I Knew Her Well's rediscovery could not be more provocatively timed.
IONCINEMA.com
Nicholas Bell
Stefania Sandrelli gives an effortless performance as the charming young woman who is interested in being desired but not quite sure of what is desirable.
New York Times
Glenn Kenny
While it's hardly subtle, it is compelling.
Village Voice
Michael Atkinson
Pietrangeli's neglected autopsy of modern showbiz culture would be a satire if it were funny - instead, and despite the bouncy vigor of its star, the movie's narrative goes down like gelato and then slowly clots in your throat.
Film Journal International
Maria Garcia
This is a timeless story, although not in [director Antonio] Pietrangeli's hands, an archetypal one.
ReelTalk Movie Reviews
Donald J. Levit
One wants to rescue this lost lady who is not aware enough to realize how lost she is.
