Variety
Film that emerges is brave, in many ways fascinating, and in all respects of a calibre rarely seen.

Another Woman
Woody Allen drama starring Gena Rowlands as a writer who becomes drawn into the life of a psychiatry patient whose conversations she eavesdrops on.
Marion (Rowlands) is a woman who has learned to shield herself from her emotions. She rents an apartment to work undisturbed on her new book, but by some acoustic anomaly she can hear all that is said in the next apartment in which a psychiatrist holds his office. When she hears a young woman tell that she finds it harder and harder to bear her life, Marion starts to reflect on her own life. After a series of events she comes to understand how her unemotional attitude towards the people around her affected them and herself.

Time Out
Rowlands' perfectly pitched approach to a demanding role is particularly stunning.

The Washington Post
Once again, Allen has mistaken unfunny for serious, feeling the breath of immortality on his shoulder.

Mr. Allen is becoming an immensely sophisticated director, but this screenplay is in need of a merciless literary editor.

Film is the most voyeuristic medium, but rarely have I experienced this fact more sharply than while watching Woody Allen's Another Woman.
