Madame Sousatzka
- While living in London, a Bengali immigrant (Shabana Azmi) strives to support the talents of her piano-playing child prodigy (Navin Chowdhry). Her search for a teacher to hone her son's gift leads to the Russian-born Madame Sousatzka (Shirley MacLaine, in a Golden Globe-winning performance), a woman who demands total commitment. When Sousatzka insists that her new pupil live his life in a "proper" manner, major conflicts arise between the two.

Roger Ebert, Chicago Sun-TimesIt's as affectionate, big-hearted and creaky as any film that ever graced Radio City Music Hall, with leisureliness and dime-store philosophizing to match. full review
Janet Maslin, New York TimesAn intimate and amusing adaptation of Bernice Rubens' novel. full review
Rita Kempley, Washington PostAs charming and fanciful as it is impossible to pigeonhole. full review
