It is amazing how cinema done well can make the viewer empathize so much with the protagonist, and that is the case with The Quiet Girl. Despite the little dialogue, I was able to feel every single emotion the little girl was feeling, I wanted to reach into the screen and hug her tightly, until I burst into tears in the final scene with that cookie and the "Daddy." Wonderful soundtrack, the little girl acted great even though she is only 12 years old, poor plot but strong impact, it is more focused on making you empathize with the girl. One of the best films of 2022 8/10

An Cailín Ciúin (A Quiet Girl) is like watching a short story where every scene feels like reading literary descriptions crawl across the screen. I know it's supposed to be poetic (it was an international picture nominee at the last Oscars, after all) but I just found it slow. There's just something wrong with a movie whose description and summary are the same thing. Plus, it's hard to be a father and a cinephile because movies like these are a place where they grind little girls. Yet lead child actress Catherine Clinch is ethereal and I'm convinced they made this movie solely to capture the luminescence she exudes.

Beautiful touching film. Very played by the little girl. The warmth of the family is overwhelming.

Catherine Clinch is great here as the subdued but curious "Cáit". With her mother expecting a baby soon, she is shipped off to stay with farmers "Eibhlín" (Carrie Crowley) and her husband "Seán" (Andrew Bennett). Whilst the mother is openly welcoming, the father is more reticent as the young girl More

This is a calmly revealed story of the many faces of love. The directing, the pacing, the cinematography and the acting are all world-class. The character development of the three protagonists is awesome. The film is so endearing that you just want to live in this world.
