Certified Copy
Academy Award(R)-winner Juliette Binoche gives one of the finest performances of her career (for which she won the best actress award at Cannes) in CERTIFIED COPY, the first European film from Abbas Kiarostami (TASTE OF CHERRY). The film is a playful and provocative romance set against the lush, golden landscapes of Tuscany, a captivating story of a couple's apparent chance meeting and a masterful game of hide and seek exploring the nature of love, marriage and art. Andrew O'Hehir of Salon says, CERTIFIED COPY is "an elegant, wistful and picturesque tale of two ships passing in the Tuscan sunlight."

Despite its modernist sensibility, there is little reason to be intimidated, unless you find the character of James abhorrent.

Like its central couple, the film is a volatile mix of the studied and deeply felt.
Sheri Linden, Los Angeles Times, 03.10.2011 -
A film as audacious and radical as any likely to see theaters this year.
