Rating: 4/5 --
Armstrong's subsequent sojourn in Hollywood never yielded a film as engaging and passionately felt as this, her brilliant feature debut.

Radio Times
This is a modest, clear sighted film, and it profits considerably from a lack of the bravura landscape photography that most directors would have used to puff up a movie set in Australia.

TIME Magazine
My Brilliant Career is not only a good plot - in the full Victorian sense of that word - but is also a shimmering impressionistic gem to behold.

Sojourner
The action and sentiments are familiar to the point of cliche, and there isn't much life in Gillian Armstrong's academic direction.

Chicago Reader
The period atmosphere is evoked with careful delicacy, but the characters rarely become more than stereotypes with performances (Judy Davis excepted) to match.
Time Out
Rating: A --
This charming coming of age Australian film marks the debuts of two talented women: Director Gillian Armstrong and actress Judy Davis.

It's hard to imagine a film filled with more quiet integrity, intelligent passion, realistic drama and genuine entertainment than Gillian Armstrong's My Brilliant Career.

Description by OLDIES.com:
This is the film that became a worldwide sensation and remains perhaps the most beloved and acclaimed romantic epic of all time! Oscar-nominee Judy Davis (A PASSAGE TO INDIA, MARIE ANTOINETTE) made her international breakthrough debut as Sybylla Melvyn, a free-spirited young writer who refuses to conform to society's expectations of how a 'proper woman' should live her life. Sam Neill (JURASSIC PARK, THE PIANO) co-stars as the wealthy suitor who tries to win her restless heart in this Oscar-nominated classic directed by Gillian Armstrong (LITTLE WOMEN, STARSTRUCK). Long unavailable in America, MY BRILLIANT CAREER has been fully restored and remastered in sumptuous High Definition from the original negative, under the supervision of Academy Award nominated Director of Photography Donald McAlpine (MOULIN ROUGE, ROMEO + JULIET).
