My Golden Days

"'My Golden Days' is touching, involving and very well acted" 

"Bold, brilliant movie (...) this coming-of-age tale brims over with humor, heartbreak and ravishing romance. (...) Rating: ★★★½ (out of four)" 

"A nostalgic romance set in the pre-Internet age (...) Years is also one of the director’s most heartfelt and accessible titles in, well, years" 

"Marvelously vivid coming-of-age drama. (...) Desplechin perfectly times the moment when drollery ends and anguish begins, and it’s that sense of vulnerability that lends the film an unexpected emotional force as it moves toward its (...) epilogue." 

"'My Golden Days' exists simultaneously within and outside of its characters' headspace, a testament to Desplechin's powers of imaginative sensitivity (…) Rating: ★★★½ (out of 4)" 

"[It] isn’t an autobiographical film, but it has the shimmering intimacy of one"
