Conversations With Other Women Reviews
I was hooked to the screen, to the film's sense of time and place and risk, to the intelligence of the talk and the intimations of pleasure and regret in Bonham Carter's performance.

Pining affair for mature art house fans.
| Original Score: 3/5 | Dec 18, 2010
Director Hans Canosa has made a split-screen experimental student film about two would-be lovers who connect after a wedding party in New York City.
| Original Score: D+ | Apr 19, 2009
...although infused with a number of truthful moments and an awfully romantic atmosphere, director Hans Canosa's use of split-screen remains a distraction throughout the film's admittedly brisk running time.
| Original Score: 2.5/4 | Oct 31, 2008
Engrossing from start to finish, Conversations with Other Women is a stimulating man/woman tussle about life, love and the whole damn thing. It's funny, unexpected, philosophical and romantic with a dash of melancholy thrown in for good measure

Initially, the split screen seems like a quirky idea. But it gets old fast.
| Original Score: 3/5 | Dec 7, 2007
| Original Score: 4/5 | Jun 19, 2007
An intriguing deconstruction of a failed relationship, long past its point of no return.
| Original Score: 4/4 | Jun 1, 2007
| Original Score: 3/5 | May 18, 2007
Canosa demonstrates a playful and inventive filmmaking style with this insightful story of a relationship told from various perspectives
| Original Score: 3.5/5 | May 5, 2007
A near-perfect amalgamation of cinematic technique and content.
| Mar 1, 2007
One of the most realistically romantic movies I've seen in a while. And I'm not easily impressed by what generally passes for "movie romance."
| Original Score: 4.5/5 | Jan 23, 2007
| Original Score: 2/4 | Jan 16, 2007
The film is technically brilliant but emotionally shallow; take away the split screen gimmick, and you have a romantic drama that wouldn't be worth its running time.
| Original Score: 2.5/5 | Jan 11, 2007
You spend more time watching the technique than the interplay between Carter and Eckhart.
| Original Score: 2/4 | Nov 16, 2006
The insights it offers into modern relationships are not particularly deep. But as an acting tour de force, the movie offers enough leisurely pleasures to entertain.

The film ultimately becomes too contrived to be anything but a fleeting diversion, but kudos to these emerging filmmakers for daring to make something a little bit different and, for the most part, intriguing.
| Sep 15, 2006
The charm of Conversations With Other Women, a gimmicky but oddly moving two-character drama that flies in from who knows where, is its intelligent knowingness.
| Original Score: 3/4 | Sep 15, 2006
The observations about love and sex and time and memory are uncommonly sharp and true.
| Original Score: 3.5/4 | Sep 1, 2006
Eckhart delivers a complicated performance, veering from aggressive to abashed, and stopping at puppy-eager, jealous, and conflicted along the way.
