Reviews
|
The Globe and Mail (Toronto) -
The heart and mind of Maudie are always in the right place.
|
|
The Hollywood Reporter -
A stellar, warmly persuasive starring turn by Sally Hawkins as crippled, self-taught painter Maud Lewis is the raison d'etre of Maudie.
|
|
Screen International -
If ultimately Maudie doesn’t have much new to say about love or art, at least its two misfits provide an insight into something deeply true about long-term commitment.
|
|
TheWrap -
The story of a woman dismissed by those around her who asserts herself through art testifies to the indomitable power of creativity. Why turn that compelling story into a predictable romance?
|
|
Variety -
What little dimension Maudie offers is a direct result of Hawkins’ contributions, which draw from her character’s past to add texture to her performance.
