      The Guardian

      Blue Is the Warmest Colour really is an outstanding film and the performances from Exarchopoulos and Séydoux make other people's acting look very weak.

      The Hollywood Reporter

      Less concerned with classic storytelling than with creating virtual performance pieces on screen, the film features dozens of extended sequences of Adele and Emma both in and out of bed—scenes that are virtuously acted and directed, even if they run on for longer than most filmmakers would allow.

      Blue's raw portrayal of infatuation and heartbreak is both devastating and sublime. It's unforgettable.
