"CARAMEL's cast is made up entirely of nonprofessional actors, and their volatile emotions and commitment to their characters enliven every moment of the film....Lovely and amazing."Film Comment "[A] charming film...[with a] friendly and inviting atmosphere."New York Times "It is sweet but not saccharine, an intimate film that doesn't stint on the desperation and anxiety that go along with the search for love."Los Angeles Times 3 stars out of 4 -- "Labaki has made a warmly appealing, bittersweet confection, and a heartfelt tribute to Beirut. Likable, funny and often poignant, CARAMEL is a cinematic treat."USA Today 3 stars out of 5 -- "[A] gentle comedy about a Lebanese beauty salon....A celebration of female pluck and resilience..." Total Film "[I]t's lent a playful spark by the characters' admirable wit and spunk..."Sight and Sound 4 stars out of 5 -- "Like STEEL MAGNOLIAS without the terminal illness, it celebrates the solidarity of women negotiating a series of emotional events."Empire 3 stars out of 4 -- "[I]t stands on its own as an example of solid genre craftsmanship. The penetrating musical score...the snappy and confident pacing and the emergence of 33-year-old Labaki as an international talent to watch all combine to make the film a satisfying confection."Premiere4.14325
