Avis Metacritic

French director Claude Berri's exquisite, methodical Lucie Aubrac is a romantic thriller so tightly drawn it almost leaves one breathless.

This is one not to be missed.

Gorgeous re-creation of another time.

Oddly undramatic.

A very romantic picture.

It's a love story, though, and all the more poignant for being one that actually survived under such tempestuous circumstances.

Achieves the rare feat of fusing tightly ratcheted suspense with intense romance.

Aside from isolated flares of unchecked emotion ...Bouquet's Lucie is too far removed from our ken of romance and overriding purpose, or from Berri's for that matter, to be embraced entirely.

Handsomely photographed and acted...defiantly old-fashioned testament to the power of love.

Berri's film lacks both suspense and a heroine who actually breaks a sweat while hurling herself in the path of one of the 20th century's most merciless juggernauts.
