  "The downbeat story unfolds in quick, incisive slashes in which the combination of minimal dialogue and gorgeous black-and-white photography lends the movie a chilly documentary realism. This small, nearly perfect film is really about the sad chains of events that can follow when people foolishly surrender to their dumbest romantic impulses"

  “With its black and white photography and youthful tone, A Tout de Suite feels like a lost Nouvelle Vague film from the early 60’s. Indeed a comparison to such New Wave fare like Breathless or Band of Outsiders would not be without merit. However, despite the stylistic similarities with those classics, what really makes this film work are the performances, most importantly Besco’s emotionally honest portrait of Lili. […] In her portrayal, Besco infuses Lili with a youthful sensuality akin to a Scarlett Johansen. Lili is a sexual being and never lets us forget it with both her penchant for being nude and her moments of brazen sexuality. Jacquot portrays such moments honestly without exploitive intention and the gamble works. In the end, he fashions a film based on a true story that is both stylistically fresh and strong as well as dramatically captivating”
