	Author	Review
United States	Vincent Canby The New York Times	"A fairy tale that remains mysterious even after the mysteries are answered. That's what so good about it."	POS
United States	Kenneth Turan Los Angeles Times	"The result is an emotionally powerful piece of work that is unsatisfactory in terms of simple plot logic, a compelling picture marred by a clumsily built frame."	NEU
United States	Marjorie Baumgarten Austin Chronicle	"[Holland] is beginning to develop a personal voice that is as strong and articulate as her evident sociopolitical sentiments (…) Rating: ★★★½ (out of 5)"	POS
United States	David Stratton Variety	"A seemingly simple but intriguing and ultimately powerful film about a provincial family. Very good international art-house prospects loom for this one"	POS
United Kingdom	Time Out	"The film delves with confidence into some dark areas, and takes the scalpel to the nuclear family"	POS
