[A] strange, sad, mesmerizing little movie.
August 05, 2015
As the pinched, ever-wary, heartbreaking Nobbs, Close gives a tricky, high wire, award-worthy performance yet she commendably resists any temptation to be showy, campy or spectacular in the least.
July 02, 2012
One's admiration for Close's work becomes more for her versatility and fearlessness than a connection with the character she portrays.
April 21, 2013
There's no contrived moralizing bridge to modern relevance, no overt nod to contemporary gender politics and no real reason why Close shouldn't get some respect this awards season.
September 08, 2013
An unadventurous film that has only the smallest of fires in its belly.
January 30, 2012
What you feel, watching Close, is not that you are watching gender being bent into new, absorbing shapes but that you might as well have stayed home and leafed through a book on Magritte.
February 03, 2012
The film surrounding the performance is not always as strong, but the centre holds, and magnificently so.
January 03, 2013
Close, in one of her greatest performances, is quiet, still, almost invisible to those around her. It's not a stunt or an impersonation, it's a perfect realization of what someone in her position might endure just to eat.
February 02, 2012
Albert is at the heart of it all and we see her through her own prism of vulnerability, resulting in a very human story about the search for love, acceptance and understanding of the self.
July 15, 2012
Close's performance is no less sensational than Heath Ledger's as the close mouthed Ennis in Brokeback Mountain.
January 30, 2012
A movie that, like its title character, never quite dares to let itself discover what it really wants to be.
April 24, 2012
The grim, grey-hued result is about as far from contemporary drag chic as it's possible to get - appropriate for the subject matter, perhaps, but hardly the stuff of satisfying cinema.
