Rotten
It's a British period piece, full of the sylvan Cornish coast and countryside, vintage motorcars, steam threshers and sensibilities. Pity they left out a compelling plot.
Roger Moore, Orlando Sentinel

A fascinating and involving chamber piece for two superb actresses.
Eleanor Ringel Gillespie, Atlanta Journal-Constitution

A wistful little thing about regret, jealousy and love.
Steven Rea, Philadelphia Inquirer

Under Dance's sure hand, and the even surer performances of Smith and Dench, who know that underplaying an emotion often increases its punch, the film is a small study in the dignity of letting go.
Michael O'Sullivan, Washington Post

A funny, civilized little romantic drama in which Smith co-stars with the equally estimable Judi Dench.
Ann Hornaday, Washington Post
