Little White Lies

It’s Cotillard canon, and one for the director’s top tier, without doubt.

Guardian

This is exasperatingly nonsensical and humourless: it is full of grand gestures, gigantically self-important acting, big scenes (though often bafflingly truncated), big emotions and smirkingly knowing dialogue.

Rated: 2/5

Brother and Sister seems more like a retread (and a retreat) than anything that’s come prior, marking a new step forward for the lauded director by taking a disappointing step back.

Rated: C

Desplechin might have done his worst feature to date with Brother and Sister. Unfortunately, after displaying some creativity with his work on his previous film, he follows it up with a total disaster.

Rated: D+

Both Cortillard and Poupaud are marvelous as they act out the beautifully written script by Desplechin. It's the most emotionally resonant Desplechin film in years.

Open to appreciation on a number of different levels, Brother and Sister is pure Desplechin minus the self-mythologizing, a slight reset that still maintains the director’s sly humor and destabilizing approach to sequencing
