Review For Movie Blancanieves
This year's crowded field of Snow White movies has a winner, at least in terms of quality, in Pablo Berger's delightful Blancanieves.Dennis Harvey-Variety
Berger, like his rad forebear Luis Bunuel, marries poetry to film.
Sarah Nicole Prickett-Globe and Mail
While the story, shorn of its supernatural elements, is mired in abuse and tragedy, its effect is sensual and superficial.
Liam Lacey-Globe and Mail
We're not in Disney's world. Berger knows his Grimm, and he suffuses his entrancing fairy tale with a moving sense of melancholy.
Elizabeth Weitzman-New York Daily News
From Spain, here's a miracle of fairy tale repurposing: a version of the Brothers Grimm's "Snow White," set in Spanish bullfighting country in the late 1920s. Writer-director Pablo Berger's Blancanieves goes all the way with its concept, and then further.
Michael Phillips-Chicago Tribune
Alfonso de Vilallonga's music isn't mere accompaniment, it's a score with rich emotional resonance. The silents, as this film suggests, achieved aesthetic marvels before sound came along to set things back for a while.
Joe Morgenstern-Wall Street Journal
The best Snow White re-imagining produced in the last few years.
Wesley Lovell-Cinema Sight
...recreates the broadness of early silent films without capturing their artistry.
Josh Larsen-LarsenOnFilm
It's a sumptuously told tale, shot with painterly visuals and edited with a cool, melodic rhythm.
Steve O'Brien-Total Film
Given all the hoo-haa over The Artist - did it really win Oscars for Best Film, Director & Actor? 'Fraid so. - it's a surprise this splendid Spanish silent retelling of Snow White hasn't drawn more plaudits.
Jim Schembri-3AW
This is a beautiful film to watch.
Matthew Toomey-ABC Radio Brisbane
Inspired, perhaps, by The Artist, writer/director/producer Pablo Berger's handsome Spanish production (with English subtitles) updates the Grimm Brothers Snow White tale to the world of 1920s bullfighting - and, well, why not?
David 'Mad Dog' Bradley-Rip It Up
An absolute delight: a thrillingly unpredictable romp that entertains with joyful and mischievous abandon.
Ed Gibbs-The Sunday Age
This is a beautiful film
Andrew L. Urban-Urban Cinefile
Bitter sweet moments are a-plenty and I still have a lump in my throat from the unforgettable final scene
Louise Keller-Urban Cinefile
Suitably dark for a film with barely concealed undercurrents of child abuse and necrophilia. Fans of Mirror Mirror need not apply.
Matt Glasby-Flicks.co.nz
"Blancanieves" is not as charming as "The Artist," but it's more sincerely a work of true silent cinema.
Gerald Peary-Arts Fuse
It hardly needs to be said that this fairytale is not really intended for children. In truth, few fairytales are.
Donald Clarke-Irish Times
