The Portuguese Nun Ratings & Reviews
Dennis Schwartz Movie Reviews
Dennis Schwartz
Superior, elegant, distinctive, formalistic, unconventional art film.
Seattle Times
Jeff Shannon
It's a droll, tongue-in-cheek exchange in a film that's well aware of its own unconventional appeal to high-minded cinephiles.
New York Post
V.A. Musetto
The real star is director Eugene Green's quirky style: enigmatic dialogue, lengthy tracks and pans, actors speaking directly to the camera, shots of feet set against the cobblestone streets and picture-postcard-perfect vistas of the city.
New York Times
A.O. Scott
Mr. Green is fascinated by the possibility that the collision of eros and religion suggested by his literary source might have some resonance in the present, and he explores it in a way that is both cerebral and sensual.
Village Voice
Nick Pinkerton
The result is like nothing else playing, which makes it the best movie in town almost by default.
Slant Magazine
Andrew Schenker
Green is fascinated by actress Leonor Baldaque's eyes, his own rigorous formalism, and the architecture, art, and music of Lisbon-in that order.
