When Fall Is Coming

“ Delicacy, grace and sweetness.”

“With a terrific lead from screen and stage veteran Hélène Vincent, this is Ozon in his fine-wine register."

"Ozon tells his questioning tale through the familiar domesticity of the garden, the dinner table, the stroll along a path with her grandson, but in doing so piles up moral complexity, personal history and intrigue.”

“No word is wasted, no information about the characters overplayed, while the plot unwinds at an exactly calibrated pace, its various reversals chiming in as precisely as solo instruments in an orchestra."

"The prolific François Ozon is back with a thriller that questions and constantly plays with appearances, managing to maintain tension and suspense throughout.”

“The film is impeccably cast: Sagnier is strikingly rebarbative... Vincent's restrained, fine-tuned performance keeps us guessing about his motives and inner nature."

“A film that tells a lot and leaves everything open - so confidently and convincingly, without ever forcing the pace or losing its melancholy attitude."

“This film’s dramatising of late-life content, sorrow and solitude is as subversive in its way as anything Ozon has done."
