Colette Ratings & Reviews
Chicago Reader
Andrea Gronvall
The movie's treatment of her same-sex affairs may be as tasteful as the set design, but the film is an absorbing introduction to a trailblazing artist.
Film Comment Magazine
Lauren Kaminsky
Colette is a not a film about a writer; it's about a marriage.
Chicago Tribune
Michael Phillips
There's more going on in Colette than tame hagiography; the results are happily vibrant, even if the sexual inequities depicted remain grimly pertinent.
San Diego Reader
Scott Marks
Cinematographer Giles Nuttgens' use of highly-reflective surfaces is a revelation, and Thomas Adès' lush score hits a melodramatic high note.
Pajiba
Roxana Hadadi
Keira Knightley's Colette is yet another period piece for the actress, but yeah, a woman battling a controlling husband for her art feels timely as hell.
Detroit News
Adam Graham
Westmoreland keeps the material from becoming melodramatic or overwrought, although he often relies on the overactive score to ratchet up the dramatic tension from which he tends to shy away.
Austin Chronicle
Josh Kupecki
Colette is a good primer for a wonderful author, and a reflection on how your life will never turn out as you think.
MovieFreak.com
Sara Michelle Fetters
Make no mistake, Knightley is still the primary reason this film works as splendidly as it does. She's spellbinding.
Chicago Sun-Times
Richard Roeper
Here's a movie with Keira Knightley that really does merit the sequel treatment.
New York Post
Johnny Oleksinski
Westmoreland's Paris is scrumptiously decadent - and seedy - as Colette navigates the city's eclectic, gossipy social scene.

Robert Daniels
Many of the film's best moments come at the expense of Colette, with Willy reaping the benefits.
Seattle Times
Moira MacDonald
Here, the focus is on Knightley, who delivers some of her best work.
Boston Globe
Peter Keough
Knightley... not only brings to life a woman discovering new desires and needs and finding the strength to act on them, but conveys the inner toil of the writer's creative process.
San Francisco Chronicle
Mick LaSalle
"Colette" is smart, conscientious and absorbing, and gradually, in its diligent way, achieves a certain fascination.
Washington Post
Kristen Page-Kirby
As a tale about a woman whose life was defined by fire, "Colette" lacks much of a spark.
Arizona Republic
Samantha Incorvaia
The premise is simple and based on a true story, but the movie gives the audience a plot with more layers than meets the eye. It's probably a slow burn for some, but the story is gripping with eye-catching visuals.
Wall Street Journal
John Anderson
Colette is a character-driven movie, but also one that is sending a message about social mores and their malleability.
CNN.com
Brian Lowry
Beyond her dawning sexuality, "Colette" -- foremost a terrific showcase for Knightley -- turns out to be a tale of misogyny, patriarchy and feminism,
The New Yorker
Anthony Lane
If you like your costume dramas to come with bulky chronological signposts, "Colette" will leave you in raptures.
Refinery29
Anne Cohen
[It's] a thoroughly enjoyable, thought-provoking film that will have you question what you know about the past, and how it bleeds into our present -- and possibly our future.
