The mix of the endless rehearsals, Marcelline's lack of grip both personally and professionally and her surreal imaginings make for an uneven film.

Reviews for Actresses
Valeria Bruni Tedeschi does a terrific job with her portrayal of an actress who has trouble unraveling her life from her performance, but the setting she gives this gem doesn't show it off in its best light.
there is what we can call the House of Sand and Fog problem: this woman is way too attractive to be in this desperate a situation
Set in the bourgeois and vaguely intellectual Parisian bubble of Bruni Tedeschi's alter ego, it veers more towards comedy as the film progresses, earning good-hearted laughs as well as, well, whatever one may feel towards this particular milieu.
Fails to congeal into a heady structural puzzle, or into a particularly affecting exercise in female empathy.
