Changing Times Ratings & Reviews
Los Angeles Times
Kenneth Turan
Despite its weaknesses, Changing Times (Les Temps Qui Changent in French) is always watchable and even poignant from time to time.
Boston Globe
Wesley Morris
... another gorgeous and immensely satisfying reminder that there are few better directors than Techine when it comes to capturing the vagaries of the heart.
Chicago Tribune
Michael Wilmington
If Changing Times' last shots don't touch you, your heart may be frozen.
Chicago Sun-Times
Bill Stamets
French director Andre Techine sketches a family with the usual flaws, but takes the unusual step of not fixing them.
San Francisco Chronicle
Mick LaSalle
Techine has a location, two stars and a situation, but he can't seem to parlay that into a story, and a story would help, not only in terms of audience pleasure (not something to be dismissed) but also in terms of focusing the film's intention.
Entertainment Weekly
Lisa Schwarzbaum
... more drily sociological than dramatic.
Newsday
John Anderson
[Director Andre] Techin always locates a steadfast emotional element in the worlds he creates, a defiant human construct against unstoppable change. In Changing Times, it is love, in unfamiliar forms.
New York Post
V.A. Musetto
It's always enjoyable watching Depardieu and Deneuve, but they deserve better material than they've been given by Techine.
New York Daily News
Jack Mathews
The ending is both shamelessly clichd and -- for Cecile -- out of character.
New York Times
Stephen Holden
Every character in André Téchiné's rich, warmhearted exploration of cultural collision oscillates between two worlds and two ideas about the meaning of experience.
AV Club
Noel Murray
There's something uniquely pleasurable about watching a director in total command of his craft, even when that craft is in service of a scattershot melodrama with pale intimations of social relevance.
Slant Magazine
Ed Gonzalez
There's a greater range of emotional complexity in a single close-up from Changing Times than there is in all of Cach.
Chicago Reader
Jonathan Rosenbaum
Volatile and sometimes daring performances by Catherine Deneuve, Gerard Depardieu, Gilbert Melki, Malik Zidi, and Lubna Azabal (as twins) contribute to the highly charged and novelistic experience.
L.A. Weekly
Ella Taylor
This willfully slippery movie seems to make the case both for mixing it up and sticking to your own kind. Which is all of a piece with the sensibility of this wonderfully ambiguous filmmaker, a visionary of our changing times.
Observer
Andrew Sarris
An interesting film experience, as much because of its chaotic narrative as in spite of it.
Village Voice
Michael Atkinson
We, in any case, are as unconvinced by his lovelorn saga as Deneuve's skeptical pragmatist -- that is, until a romance paperback deus ex machina shoots the film's lifelike credibility out of the water.
The Hollywood Reporter
Kirk Honeycutt
A thoughtful and reflective love story about the impact of time on true love.
Variety
Lisa Nesselson
This moody, more-bitter-than-sweet ode to anxiety is intense adult fare reinforced by effective no frills lensing.
Los Angeles CityBeat
Andy Klein
Tchin...is back in form with this engrossing tale of the inconvenient passions that bubble beneath the surface among people who have accepted bourgeois compromise.
EmanuelLevy.Com
Emanuel Levy
Frenchman Techine proves again that he's a master of crafting seemingly ordinary events into a unique and exilarating world, and he's greatly helped by his superlative actors, Gerard Depardieu and Catherine Deneuve (in her fourth film with him).
