My Sister Maria Ratings & Reviews
Film Threat
Phil Hall
Fascinating documentary on the celebrated Austrian actress.
Seattle Times
Moira MacDonald
It's not easy to classify Maximilian Schell's occasionally clumsy but always touching tribute to his actress sister, and it's equally difficult not to be moved by it.
Seattle Post-Intelligencer
William Arnold
It's unpleasantly bitter (Maximilian had to sell his art collection to keep her out of the poorhouse and he's not happy about it), rather ghoulish, supremely depressing and, considering her condition, a criminal invasion of the woman's privacy.
San Francisco Chronicle
G. Allen Johnson
It is meant to be a loving and sad portrait of a fading life, but it feels intrusive, excessively brooding and narcissistic.
San Diego Metropolitan
Jean Lowerison
It's difficult to witness the disintegration of a personality; unfortunately, watching My Sister Maria inspires the question, 'Why was this film made?'
San Diego Union-Tribune
David Elliott
My Sister Maria is a strange bouquet, a sort of pre-memorial.
Chicago Sun-Times
Roger Ebert
Bbrave, heartless, and exceedingly strange.
Washington Post
Desson Thomson
Aa heartfelt but eccentric, pseudo-documentary.
Boston Globe
Janice Page
Maximilian's narcissistic examination of his theatrical family -- to the degree that he shows us photos of ancestors even he doesn't know -- can be boring, and his creative license with the truth is kind of troubling.
Boston Herald
Paul Sherman
Feels less like a tribute and more like a chance for Maximilian to play the caring savior.
Los Angeles Times
Kenneth Turan
A thoughtful look backward, a summing up that attempts to understand what is ephemeral and what truly lasts, what it is that matters in the final analysis.
L.A. Weekly
Ella Taylor
As tense and fractured, as alienating -- and, finally, touching -- a work as it undoubtedly ought to be.
