Entertainment Reviews:
[Seydoux] can bring whole lives into focus or wrap them in mystery with a glance or gesture...It’s filled with sharp commentary on class and servitude, and the actress delivers another extraordinary performance.
Los Angeles Times
Rating: 3/4 --
Worth seeing as another entry in the rise of Léa Seydoux, a star of Gallic charisma if ever I've seen one.

Observer
Has serious narrative glitches and a shaky timeline, but at least it is true to the bitterly misanthropic spirit of Octave Mirbeau's 1900 novel about masters and servants.

New York Times
Rating: 4/10 --
Diary of a Chambermaid would make a decent first act to a television miniseries. As a film, it ends in an unfortunate whimper.

Under the Radar
Rather than gain speed and power in its final act, as Joseph's design comes into play, the movie stalls.

NPR
3 stars out of 5 -- Jacquot’s film disperses the elements of Célestine’s anxiety into interestingly composed flashback sequences.
The Guardian
3.5 stars out of 4 -- [T]he immediate effect Jacquot achieves, with quiet droll and some considerable dread, is bracing.

Product Description:
In late 19th century France, a chambermaid (Léa Seydoux) deals with the cruelty and perversions of the upper class while working at a bourgeoisie home in Normandy. In time, she enters into a relationship with a fellow servant (Vincent Lindon) who may be deeply troubled. Directed by Benoît Jacquot, DIARY OF A CHAMBERMAID is based on the 1900 novel of the same name by Octave Mirbeau.
