The Critics
★★★★
"A treat for fans of French art house movies"
Geoffrey Macnab, The Independent
★★★★ "Perfectly balanced. Always compassionate.'
Kevin Mahler, The Times
★★★★"Pierre Milon's shimmering cinematography ensures that the Calanque de Méjean provides an atmospheric setting for the musings on tradition, memory, depopulation, class and defying age, with the final sequence beneath the echoing arches of the railway viaduct being indescribably beautiful."
David Parkinson, Empire
★★★★"The House by the Sea is certainly one to be visited not only for its stunning scenery and careful, sensitive and honest acting and direction but because it manages to address key controversial issues about immigration without ever preaching too overtly."
Jonathan Marshall, The Upcoming
★★★★"A father’s legacy is minutely dissected in this stirring tale of regret, nostalgia and the true meaning of community spirit."
Victor Fraga, DMovies
★★★★ ‘Ariane Ascaride is outstanding’
Chris Schilling, Total Film
