The Piano Tuner of Earthquakes movie stills
Reviews provided by RottenTomatoes
J. R. Jones, Chicago Reader: As in most of the Quays' fantasias, the narrative is oblique and slow moving but the florid visuals are rife with sexual and psychological overtones. Read more
Ted Fry, Seattle Times: It is a bold step into a mainstream realm for its ancient fablelike theme, agile storytelling, magnificent design and sure grasp of long-form narrative structure. Read more
Scott Tobias, AV Club: [Piano Tuner of Earthquakes is] one of those rare examples of a completely original environment created for the screen. Then people start talking, and the snoozing soon commences. Read more
Ty Burr, Boston Globe: The whole movie feels filmed through the wrong end of a stereopticon: stiff, fascinating, riddled with secrets it doesn't care to divulge. Read more
Kristine McKenna, Los Angeles Times: ... those who can surrender to the Quays' poetic logic will find "The Piano Tuner" to be nothing short of a masterpiece. Read more
John Monaghan, Detroit Free Press: What the movie lacks in acting and coherence, it more than makes up for through imagery. Read more
Tim Grierson, L.A. Weekly: However much The Piano Tuner of Earthquakes wants to haunt your dreams, it has a better chance of production-designing you to death. Read more

Bill Stamets, Chicago Sun-Times: This opaque tale offers meticulously crafted atmosphere, but rather less passion or drama. Read more
Karen Wilson, Village Voice: What we are seeing is the most rational irrationality-and all sheer artifice anyway. Read more
