Summertime Ratings & Reviews
Film Comment Magazine
Yonca Talu
The juxtaposition of pulsating Paris with the static and reactionary countryside yields a compelling metaphor for Delphine's moral conundrum...What's frustrating about Summertime is its sometimes overly didactic tone.

Cole Smithey
American audiences looking for female-led dramas that are authentic by design need only seek out this impressive film.
New York Post
Kyle Smith
Two dull people have a dull love affair in "Summertime," a French drama that drags on like an August afternoon.
RogerEbert.com
Glenn Kenny
What makes Summertime really refreshing is that it doesn't treat its central romance as anything but wholly normal, despite the attitude of other characters, or indeed, the tenor of the time in which it is set.
Spirituality & Practice
Frederic and Mary Ann Brussat
An exploration of the many forces tugging at a couple in a lesbian relationship.
Film Journal International
Doris Toumarkine
Bold, beautiful and entirely engaging fictional love story.
New York Times
A.O. Scott
While the physical contrasts between Ms. de France and Ms. Higelin are striking, the differences of temperament and background that separate their characters rarely feel simplified.
Los Angeles Times
Kenneth Turan
Artfully calculated and authentically felt, the unexpectedly effective "Summertime" combines the conventional structure of classic movie romance with a sensual same-sex frankness that couldn't be more up-to-date.
NPR
Mark Jenkins
A rare look at the era through women's eyes.
AV Club
Mike D'Angelo
For a while, Summertime seems to be as much about the French second-wave feminist movement as it is about its central romance.
The Playlist
Chris Evangelista
Unsentimentally romantic, there's enough grace in Summertime to keep you enraptured.
The Film Stage
Jared Mobarak
While a romance on its surface, Catherine Corsini's Summertime is really about freedom.
Slant Magazine
Diego Semerene
Catherine Corsini depicts feminists in lighthearted ways, at once humorously caricatured and sensitively human.
HuffPost
Brandon Judell
Might just be the 'Carol' and 'Blue is the Warmest Color' of 2016. The leads are enthralling, and the way the semi-rocky romance is handled makes this a perfect Sapphic date film.
Variety
Peter Debruge
Summertime celebrates the unique couple's chemistry, allowing their smiles to convey the transformative effect they have on one another.
The Hollywood Reporter
Boyd van Hoeij
The story's anchored by strong performances from Belgian star Cecile de France and French singer-turned-actress Izia Higelin, who have a natural chemistry that's not only credible but actually infectious.
IndieWire
Eric Kohn
Summertime owes less to its plot development than the credibility of its performances among this trio of women as they present a fascinating set of conflicting perspectives.
PopMatters
Alex Ramon
Corsini judges her ending perfectly here, building the drama to a heart-rendingly poignant final that's truly worthy of this most beautiful and believable of love stories.
Village Voice
Melissa Anderson
For all of its wise, welcome focus on the libidinal, Summertime additionally succeeds in presenting the far-left fervor of the time without devolving into school-play pageantry.

Sarah Boslaugh
This is one hot love story, but Summertime is equally notable for the way it reconstructs the mood of radical political movements in the 1970s...
