An Unmarried Woman Reviews

Clayburgh is dazzlingly frank. She carries a poker face when around the film's men. All her largest emotions are kept for herself. It's thrilling. I miss her.

It's just another of those films made by a man with women in mind.

Jill Clayburgh portrays the woman, vulnerable, confused, and trying to be independent. It is a perfectly delightful performance from this polished young actress.

Clayburgh is luminous as Erica, wounded and stumbling, yet somehow graceful.

An emotive score from Bill Conti and a beautiful rendering of late 70s New York from Arthur J. Ornitz add to the enduring appeal of An Unmarried Woman, a perfectly titled exercise.

| Original Score: 3.5/5 | Jul 29, 2020

A key entry in the annals of feminist cinema.

| Original Score: 3.5/4 | Jun 29, 2020

I'd recommend An Unmarried Woman as a funny, beautiful fairy-tale.

| Aug 14, 2019

The story is well made and effectively directed, but it has little to do with Paul Mazursky's previous films. [Full Review in Spanish]

An Unmarried Woman explores the emotional turmoil of an abandoned wife with rare wit and perception.

| Jul 8, 2019

Clayburgh takes chances in this movie. She's out on an emotional limb. She's letting us see and experience things that many actresses simply couldn't reveal.

| Original Score: 4/4 | Jun 15, 2018

A tenderhearted feminist picture.

| Apr 7, 2016

The action unfolds with a documentary-style geographical specificity, offering a time capsule of Manhattan locations, uptown and downtown alike.

| Jun 15, 2015

Jill Clayburgh gives an iconic, Oscar nomination performance as an ordinary woman who goes through divorce and midlife crisis in Mazurski's quintessential New York movie, championed by the feminist movement of the 1970s.

| Original Score: B+ | Aug 14, 2008

Presents a credible single scene.

| Original Score: B | Feb 27, 2008

...the movie is ultimately undone by a thoroughly dated, anachronistic aura...

| Original Score: 1.5/4 | Jan 30, 2006

It is high comedy of a sharp, bitter kind, and Michael Murphy is fine as the weasel husband named Martin, but Miss Clayburgh is nothing less than extraordinary in what is the performance of the year to date.
