- Excerpt: PAST LIVES is sexy and funny and tender along its seemingly familiar path, but it never ignores the mundane truth that destiny, more often than not, keeps people apart. Reality isn’t a fairy tale.

- Excerpt: This middle segment is the best part of the film, a giddy, blossoming romance in which nostalgia for the past and hope for a harmonious future is blocked only by that tiny problem of living on the opposite side of the world from each other.

- Excerpt: If you’re looking for the most self-assured, quietly transfixing debut feature of the year, look no further than director Celine Song’s contemplative Past Lives.
