Augustine Movie Review
That the film raises interesting questions might be good enough, except that, while the movie goes about denying us information we want, it gives us details we don't need. "Augustine" churns slowly and doesn't make for compelling viewing. Mick LaSalle-San Francisco Chronicle French physician Jean-Martin Charcot hypnotized, photographed and exhibited a hysteric, as does French director Alice Winocour for a clinical love story and empowerment tale. Bill Stamets-Chicago Sun-Times Ultimately, while this character-based drama proves consistently engrossing, it leaves various pertinent and fascinating issues frustratingly unexplored. Godfrey Cheshire-Chicago Sun-Times The psychosexual drama plays out beneath the surface -- the movie is so understated it sometimes feels inert. Ben Sachs-Chicago Reader Fiercely yet faithfully imagined by... Alice Winocur, [the film] is not exclusively a mystery. It's also part love story, part horror story, as well as a parable of gender, power and the enduring enigma that is the mind-body connection. Michael O'Sullivan-Washington Post Winocour does not reduce her characters to caricatures, but depicts them as unwitting actors in the tragedy of a pathological society. Peter Keough-Boston Globe Worthwhile but fairly routine "19th-century science" drama. Kelly Vance-East Bay Express Unlike some movies that impose feminist views on 200-year-old stories, "Augustine" finds feminist sentiments within the story rather than imposing them from without. Chris Hewitt (St. Paul)-St. Paul Pioneer Press The stand out is French Pop star Soko as the title character, who gives an outstanding Oscar worthy performance! Austin Kennedy-Film Geek Central Emotionally believable performances by Vincent Lindon and Soko can't save Augustine from meandering and being tediously stuck in its 1st act. Avi Offer-NYC Movie Guru Hand-held camera gives contemporary realism amidst the historically correct costumes and surroundings. . .[but] feminist iconography . . .makes the phenomenon seem a charade. Nora Lee Mandel-Film-Forward.com [VIDEO ESSAY] Newcomer director Alice Winocour drafts an erotically charged and socially complex telling of a controversial 19th century neurologist and the nubile patient he treats. Cole Smithey-ColeSmithey.com It would be fascinating to know what the writer/director intended here, because the material is so hopelessly muddled. Nathan Southern-TV Guide's Movie Guide
