Pauline Kael

RTThe New YorkerSep 26, 2023

The picture, which is about queen Christina's stepping down from the Swedish throne in 1654, is embalmed in such reverence for its own cultural elevation that it loses all contact with the audience.

Barely has soap opera reached such heights of artistic pretension as in The Abdication.
