"An impeccably tasteful picture about some awfully tasteless decisions."

Variety
Variety"With its soap-operatic performances, bonkbuster plotline and sparkling seafront setting, all 'Adore' really lacks is a cameo from Alf Stewart"
—
Time Out
Time Out"Ms. Wright and Ms. Watts address their roles with skill and conviction, but this has the effect of making the story seem even more fanciful and absurd."
—
The New York Times
The New York Times"It may be divisive, but a vary rare exploration of the female psyche, which, with a little judicious editing, could have a long and interesting life."
—
The Guardian
The Guardian"Seems like a sun-drenched paean to a creepy alternative lifestyle."
—
The Dissolve
The Dissolve"Viewed again, far from the madding crowd and general hoo-ha of Sundance, it stands up much better than expected."
—
The Age
The Age"Despite her accomplished cast, French director Anne Fontaine summons neither the dramatic heft nor the humor to put across this absurd forbidden-love scenario."
