Reviews
Rudolf Worschech said: "The Dutch director Jos Stelling has made an elegiac film about love and ruin with an excellent international cast."
Christina Freko concluded in her review: "Nonetheless, the Dutchman expects his audience to spend 127 very arduous minutes. He did not really succeed in finding the balance between rousing entertainment and artistic aspirations. Technically speaking," The Girl and Death " a wonderful piece of cinema. The story also has the potential to unleash a true drama. But it would have had to get rid of the straitjacket of art. "
Michael Meyns wrote on the film website Filmstarts.de : "The cast of the villain with Dieter Hallervorden [...], on the other hand, is more than strange. [...] The resulting jarring humor is in a romance that is as serious as that this, however, completely out of place and ultimately contributes to the fact that the pathos of an unfulfilled love, which is claimed with grand gesture in "The Girl and Death", does not really unfold. ", and came to the conclusion:" Jos Stelling's romance "The Girl and Death" offers atmospheric images and attractive leading actors, but is told in a very lengthy way. "
