In response to an unusual request in playwright Antoine d'Anthac's will, a group of his old friends, gather for a task: they must watch a recording of "Eurydice" done by a young acting group.

What are critics saying?

Time Out London by

The film is touching, but more than that it’s wise, witty and thought-provoking.

Time Out by Eric Hynes

What elevates the film is a pervasive, palpable sense of loss — between lover and beloved, young and old, stage and screen.

75

IndieWire by Eric Kohn

The cumulative effect is occasionally dizzying but transparent, a frantic attempt to cram themes into cinematic conceit.

50

Variety by Peter Debruge

Though Resnais’ gamble seems to have failed, it’s encouraging to see a director on the brink of 90 still willing to experiment in a way most helmers half his age wouldn’t dare.

The Telegraph by Robbie Collin

While his ambitious conceit hangs together over two hours of loudly-declaimed meta-metatheatricality, my word, does it feel like an unholy slog.

67

Portland Oregonian by Stan Hall

For those with adventurous tastes and a little extra patience, the 90-year-old's possible swan song (though he evidently is far from fatigued) is rewarding.

The Hollywood Reporter by Todd McCarthy

This reflection on the past, love and death through the prism of layers of theatrical endeavor is both serious and frisky, engaging on a refined level but frustratingly limited in its complexity and depth.
