Hilary and Jackie Ratings & Reviews
Newsweek
David Ansen
Told from both women's points of view, this fascinating, if sometimes overwrought, tale packs a wallop. Watson's bravura performance shows us the agony, the ecstasy and the ruthlessness of genius.
Variety
David Stratton
Eye-grabbing performances from Emily Watson and Rachel Griffiths, who portray celebrated British cellist Jacqueline Du Pre and her older sister, Hilary, distinguish this ambitious but flawed biography, the debut feature from Anand Tucker.
Courier-Journal (Louisville, KY)
Judith Egerton
No, it's not a movie about two first ladies married to adulterous husbands.
Cincinnati Enquirer
Margaret A. McGurk
As exhilarating, passionate and profound as the music it celebrates.
Village Voice
Michael Atkinson
Watson is a mercurial presence with huge, nervous baby eyes, and when she cuts loose, an otherwise conventional film shudders with anxiety.
Washington Post
Michael O'Sullivan
Profound and haunting!
Los Angeles Times
Jack Mathews
A superb biographical account of the tragic life of cellist Jacqueline Du Pre and of the complex relationship between her and her older sister!
Chicago Sun-Times
Roger Ebert
An extraordinary film!
CNN.com
Paul Tatara
"Hilary and Jackie" is either an incredibly complex movie or an incredibly confusing one. Since I can't seem to make up my mind which one it is, I guess I'll have to cast my vote for confusing.
New York Times
Stephen Holden
One of the most insightful and wrenching portraits of the joys and tribulations of being a classical musician ever filmed.
New York Post
Jonathan Foreman
GUTSY, moving, provocative, intelligent and thoroughly grown-up, Hilary and Jackie is one of the best movies of the year.
Film.com
Peter Brunette
The acting by Emily Watson and Rachel Griffiths, playing Jackie and Hilary, respectively, as adults, is first-rate.
Arizona Republic
Bob Fenster
The story is told in such a chopped-up way that it often seems pointless and certainly devoid of much-needed editing.
Austin Chronicle
Russell Smith
For all its knock-'em-dead acting and aggressively stylish direction, Hilary and Jackie is still best described as arthouse comfort food: a big, proteiny platterful of cinematic meatloaf...
