The Rose Maker(La Fine Fleur)

Washington Post by Ann Hornaday

Top it off with Pinaud’s final dedication, and The Rose Maker turns into a film that wears its emotions lightly but generously, like dew on a blush-colored petal.

The Rose Maker is a slender but engaging tale about competition, cooperation and creativity.

Variety by Guy Lodge

Pierre Pinaud’s short but unhurried film benefits immensely from the warmly flinty presence of Catherine Frot (“Marguerite”) in the lead, lending a sense of purpose and personality to a character without much color on the page.

The New York Times by Teo Bugbee

It’s a relaxed film, one that allows the audience to sit back and, if not smell the roses, then at least appreciate them.
