| Original Score: 4/5 | Dec 30, 2006

The vision of Intimate Stories is amusingly warm-hearted without being cloying or sentimental; the landscape may be harsh, but the performances are inviting.

| Original Score: 3/4 | Jul 29, 2005

Like the performances, the movie is a small-scale feat of naturalism.

| Original Score: 3/4 | Jun 10, 2005

While the Argentine filmmaker takes his time, his film isn't tedious.

As stripped down as its title, this gentle Argentinian road movie makes much out of very little.

Full Review | Original Score: 3/4 | Mar 4, 2005

Almost every frame of this modest gem of a movie, directed by Carlos Sorin from a screenplay by Pablo Solarz, conveys the emptiness of the environment in which three interwoven vignettes unfold.

Tender, gently luminous road movie.

Full Review | Original Score: 3/4 | Mar 3, 2005

It's a perfectly realized grace note whose lack of any obvious message only reinforces the movie's abundant wisdom and patient humanism.

| Mar 3, 2005

Only the highway itself remains constant in Sorin's sweet, shaggy travelogue.

| Original Score: A- | Mar 3, 2005

Feels like a campfire yarn bereft of the giant, climactic payoff, instead maintaining a relaxed, almost demure tone of destiny-touched hopefulness

Full Review | Original Score: 3.5/5 | Mar 2, 2005

Quiet and unpretentious, the film's humanism isn't confrontational exactly but it's unmistakable nonetheless.

| Original Score: 3/4 | Sep 2, 2004

Contrasting the epic Patagonian landscapes with the modesty of his characters' aspirations, Sorin has crafted an appealing portrait of this remote region.

| Original Score: 4/5 | Jul 26, 2003

Travels a considerable distance on its gentle humor and the engaging performances of its largely nonprofessional cast.
