Something that keeps us on our toes in Belle de Jour comes from Luis Buñuel's refusal to spell out what is real and what is not. Must this be so clear to us when the fantasy life of Séverine means so much to her?
September 08, 2014
Deneuve is radiant in the lead role ... packed with Buñuel's trademark surrealistic imagery and a few really memorable fantasy sequences.
April 19, 2006
Of all the supposedly challenging attractions playing locally in our supposedly more enlightened era, the most compellingly erotic and entertaining spectacle is still provided by Belle de Jour
January 19, 2012
A character study with surreal interludes and a rare film in which Buñuel depicts a member of the upper class with some sympathy and depth
Village Voice
April 11, 2006
This silly little masterpiece regards Deneuve as the goddess of light she really was -- a figment of our collective appetite for the unreal.
April 11, 2016
Belle de Jour has the almost daunting, fragile flawlessness of the perfect crystal -- a staggering, commanding piece of film-making rather than a great film.
August 03, 2006
A delicacy, a passionate and compassionate study of erotica.
September 02, 2014
Few faces in the movies have contemporized storytelling standards as swiftly as Catherine Deneuve's.
New York Times
May 20, 2003
Every detail has been so carefully thought out that seeing it again is like seeing it in another key.
March 10, 2012
Luis Bunuel's cheerfully brazen satire of sexual repression, social decorum, and erotic fantasies is in the running for Bunuel's kinkiest film, and that's saying a lot.
July 01, 2006
It is possibly the best-known erotic film of modern times, perhaps the best.
June 18, 2002
A wise, enormously enjoyable film about the power of fantasy -- a toast to the importance of dreams.
