Reviews

The Playlist - Jessica Kiang
A highly polished film that belies the soap opera melodrama of its plotline by having the twists and turns spring directly from well-observed human behavior, Stone's The Daughter is a quiet, immensely affecting triumph.
80
Variety - Eddie Cockrell
Deeply involving and emotionally searing, The Daughter reps a confident and profoundly moving bigscreen debut for established theater director Simon Stone.
80
Time Out London - Cath Clarke
Few films make you care about the characters like this one does.
70
Screen International - Sarah Ward
What The Daughter lacks in narrative surprises, however, it works hard to make up for in its confident approach.
70
Los Angeles Times - Kenneth Turan
Made with taste, skill and discretion, The Daughter demonstrates both the staying power of classic material and the risks inherent in bringing it up to date.
