CRITICS OF "The Beat That My Heart Skipped"

Film Journal International

A riff that will provide great pleasures to those willing to sample a molto vivace remake of Toback's cinematic ode to torment and obsession.

Arizona Republic

None of this would work without Duris' simmering performance as Tom, a person who's struggling to find his true calling.

September 29, 2005

Jerusalem Post

This violent film, which swept the Cesar awards (the French Oscars) this year, provides a nuanced portrait of a conflicted young man who can never completely break away from the dark world in which he has grown up.

March 21, 2016

Resource

Seattle Times

Emotionally richer than Fingers, and there's nothing secondhand about Duris' performance.

July 29, 2005

Long Island Press

A gritty urban romance that touches on the various fascinating ways that music and psychological states of mind interact or clash in a dissonant and chaotic modern world.

March 28, 2007

Urban Cinefile

Relying on the enigmatic and sultry charisma of Romain Duris, The Beat My Heart Skipped is a mesmerising portrait of a man torn by two very different sides of his personality.

Sight and Sound

Altogether, Audiard's movie hangs together better than Toback's: it's more coherent in its construction, far less arbitrary in its dialogue, and more plausible and considered in its characterisation.

September 28, 2006

Resource

Guardian

[Duris] is pure star quality: gloweringly sexy, hypnotically unstable and needy, combining rage and vulnerability in his handsome, delicate face.

January 27, 2007

Resource

Detroit Free Press

Audiard has wisely avoided the crime-movie clichés of Toback's Fingers, and if his film is not exactly naturalistic, it is steeped in a reality that makes it all the more compelling.

August 19, 2005

Chicago Reader

Niels Arestrup is striking as the hero's slumlord father.

April 07, 2010

Resource

AV Club

From its plot to its look, The Beat That My Heart Skipped is designed to express how it feels to be torn between two opposing worlds and passions.

September 26, 2005

Detroit News

Audiard has a nice stride here, establishing Tom's world and then altering it with slow insistence.
