The Last Letter Ratings & Reviews
rec.arts.movies.reviews
Mark R. Leeper
It is hard to measure this production by the same standards as a feature film.
New York Times
Elvis Mitchell
Mr. Wiseman's stubbornness is manifest in his work, and you will fall for the same quality in The Last Letter if you have any affection for his past work.
TV Guide
Ken Fox
A shattering adaptation of one chapter from Life and Fate.
Boxoffice Magazine
Shlomo Schwartzberg
First staged by Wiseman with France's acclaimed Comedie-Francaise, it has now been brought to the screen with all its devastating power intact.
New York Post
Lou Lumenick
In a tour-de-force performance, Samie conveys volumes with her powerful voice.
eye WEEKLY
Jason Anderson
Wiseman's spare, elegant presentation does justice to the complex, passionate performance by the Comedie-Française's Catherine Samie.
Washington Post
Desson Thomson
Samie, a leading light in the highly respected French theatrical academy, the Comedie Francaise, speaks with a broad range of subtlety and outbursts of emotion. And those words are powerful.
Village Voice
J. Hoberman
Primal in its effect, The Last Letter demonstrates the power of language, performance, and narrative to hold an audience spellbound.
The Hollywood Reporter
Frank Scheck
Preserves for posterity a superb performance by Catherine Samie.
Film Journal International
Maria Garcia
Through Catherine Samie's extraordinary performance -- she's an actress with the Comédie-Française -- Wiseman seems to conjure the ghost of a living being, and then to record her stalking.
Long Island Press
Prairie Miller
Private grief seems to unintentionally dwarf public horror.
