“A portrait of a youth during the Occupation, Une jeune fille qui va bien reconstructs hell in summer colours. After thirty years in front of the cameras, Sandrine Kiberlain has succeeded in her first feature film as a director.” ~Adrien Gombeaud, Les Echos
“Most Holocaust dramas show us the trains, the barbed wire, and the starving prisoners. This movie shows us what happened before, making the story real by making us identify with the people who were lost.” ~Nell Minow, RogerEbert.com
“There are no false moves in Marder’s truly radiant lead performance.” ~Michael Rechtshaffen, L.A. Times
