In the Cut
“Technically brilliant, and Ryan is utterly compelling.” – Emma Cochrane, Empire Magazine
“A minutely etched study in mood and female psychology.” – Leslie Felperin, Sight and Sound
“Jane Campion’s astonishingly beautiful new film, In the Cut, may be the most maddening and imperfect great movie of the year. Certainly it’s the most difficult to cozy up to with its unnerving fusion of hot sex, icy sentiment and warm-running blood. The movie is being pitched as an erotic thriller, but despite a suspense subplot and the frisson that comes with watching professional cupcake Meg Ryan do the nasty, it plays far closer to an adults-only fairy tale – albeit one in which the happily-ever looks a lot like Taxi Driver.” – Manohla Dargis, Los Angeles Times
