Reaction: We certainly would have liked for this film to make money, but it was always going to be a tough sell with its subject matter and lack of stars.


"Suzanne is a film that boasts outstanding performances across the board from its cast. It's hard for four different actresses to be playing the title role, but they all pull off the different eras in the character's life." - Geoff Bray, Slant Magazine


"Far and away the biggest, most ambitious film of director Sally Potter's career, and she does remarkable work with the material, taking the script by Ann Morrow and Harry Wright and imbuing it with the necessary weight and gravitas." - Jon Farrell, Hollywood Reporter





"It takes a little while for the plot to find its footing, but once it really gets into Suzanne's story the film succeeds." - Henry Stewart, Chicago Sun-Times

Rated R for some violence, sexuality and nudity.
