Carol's reviews
Media reviews
Fotogramas
"A complete and utter masterpiece which tells the love story between Cate Blanchett and Rooney Mara, both sublime (...) General Ovation [Cannes 2015], and tears coming from this journalist."
La Razón
"Haynes gets a strange miracle -giving the impression that nothing is missing in the film-, it has to be add an amazing job of different points of view (...) an essential reference for contemporary melodrama."
ABC
Todd Haynes uses the physical and emotional eloquence of these two great actresses (...) The staging and the skin of the film (...) A big round of applause.
New York Times
At once ardent and analytical, cerebral and swooning, Carol is a study in human magnetism, in the physics and optics of eros. With sparse dialogue and restrained drama, the film is a symphony of angles and glances, of colors and shadows.
Cahiers du Cinéma
Sumptuous film, 'Carol' is especially adequacy distinction it draws between manners and magnanimity and feelings.
Caimán Cuadernos de Cine
The beauty of the film is not apparential not merely aesthetic. It is deep, arises from within and coherent response to formal options and staging (...) Exciting, true and beautiful as few.
El Mundo
"Each shot is always of an overwhelming accuracy (...) Each sequence simply vibrates (...) It is a huge film in its perfection. Dazzling to exhaustion
El País
"If the narrative of Haynes leaves you with your mouth open, wonderful interpretations of Cate Blanchett and Rooney Mara are at the same level. It's a movie with as much style as verisimilitude, you believe and feel it."
Variety
"Cate Blanchett and Rooney Mara offer brilliant performances in the exquisite adaptation by Todd Haynes of the lesbian love story by Patricia Highsmith in 1950."
The Hollywood Reporter
"The exceptional performances of Cate Blanchett and Rooney Mara (...) make 'Carol' something special, meticulous, intelligent and a bit slow adaptation of Todd Haynes (...) the novel by Patricia Highsmith."
