    A beautifully acted movie and very touching. Very atmospheric. Yolande Moreau is truly a wonderful actress. A true story. Recommended.

    A sad tale of a girl who dared to look above her station and dream of becoming an artist. Definitely not a fluffy film but one full of pathos and totally believable

    Told like a dream from which, when it came to a close, I wanted to drift back to a little more.

  • a bit slow

    Rated - 2.0 stars

    A bit too slow paced for me. Nice colours but i couldn't muster up any sympathy for Seraphine. Kept hoping it would end soon.

    I dont know how I came across this film - just by chance I suppose. How lucky for me. I was completely blown away by the story and the cinematography - its so beautifully crafted and told in such an elegant, sparing way that it really does deserve the epithet of 'art'. I watched it all the way through in one sitting - quite literally couldnt tear myself away from it.

    The quality of acting is astonishing - Moreau is amazing. The tiniest gestures signify so much - in an early scene, Seraphine plunders some candlewax from the cathedral and makes a small, entrancing and entire natural gesture towards the image of the Virgin as if to say 'Its only a little bit of wax; I'm sure you won't miss it'. Literally breathtaking in its simplicity and truth.

    What a wonderful film this was - a real unexpected treasure.
