Tell No One
Here we present a series of adventures of a man who escaped from the police because he was accused of killing his wife. It may be quite different, as there is still evidence to suggest that this woman is still alive and that this man is innocent of that charge. Perhaps there is something strange about that story.

Tell No One has shades of Hitchcock's Vertigo -- and not to its detriment. [An] extremely gripping and fascinating suspense film.
November 26, 2008
Initially complex, the piece's grip loosens with the introduction of a transparent villain, but it remains an entertaining thriller bolstered by Cluzet's appropriately angst-driven performance.
November 17, 2008
Easily one of the best films of the year.

While it's hardly a great film, Tell No One is the rare convoluted thriller that actually makes you want to keep up with its far-fetched twists and turns.
October 18, 2008
Although it might make your head spin, this case of Vertigo in cyberspace keeps us spellbound.

Until an exposition flood so mammoth it has cresting waves, "Tell No One" is as eloquent as it is intricate - a superior depiction of crime, corruption, shame and secrecy. A French-language "Fugitive" with wind-sprint intensity and immediacy.

Tell No One is a thoroughly absorbing whodunit with more twists and switchbacks than the Le Mans racecourse.
October 18, 2008
By and large, Tell No One is more interested in telling a knotty story than pondering its meaning, but in those rare deeper moments, Canet evokes how a tragedy can gather around a man and linger there, like a cloud of gnats.

This twisty yarn is meant to leave you as discombobulated as its hero, an innocent man on the run from cops, thugs and killers. Hitchcock would have liked seeing him squirm.
October 18, 2008
Canet has a good feeling for lowlife atmosphere and he works up a few fine Hitchcockian twirls.
September 26, 2008
A whodunit so nicely crafted that you're tempted to forgive the Byzantine plot -- hell, you're even tempted to pretend you actually understand its twisting obscurities.
August 08, 2009
Canet has covered his bases with enough swooping camerawork, narrative smoke-and-mirrors, and quick-sketched supporting characters for a dozen thrillers
