Lover for a Day's reviews
Media reviews
Cinemanía
"All the close-ups of 'L'amant d'un jour' are a crazy thing. But there is a very wonderful one: Louise Chevillote lying on her side on the bed, crying, before the camera climbs up framing the door frame (...), where you could say that the freckles on her face are confused with the 35mm grain in black and white."
Fotogramas
"An actress [Juliette Binoche] who (...) leaves us speechless, as is the case of this delicious comedy, based on hesitant dialogues, which translates into images the difficulty of establishing links in today's world, and more for a woman of a certain age."
Fotogramas
"'Lover for a day', a breath of an updated Nouvelle Vague, in the shell of San Sebastian, on the frustration of love."
The Hollywood Reporter
"Minor but still fascinating Garrel."
Variety
"An alluring and very elegantly crafted, though largely predictable."
