Entertainment Reviews:
THE WIFE pulls off the not inconsiderable feat of spinning a fundamentally literary premise into an intelligent screen drama that unfolds with real juice and suspense.
New York Times
Rating: 8/10 --
The Wife is one well-executed example of the proverbial woman behind the man, and what it cost her to stay put.

North Shore News (Vancouver, B.C.)
4 stars out of 5 -- [I]t’s Close who takes it to the next level with a powerfully implosive performance that doubles as an accumulation of details that define a marriage.
Rolling Stone
The film is most effective when it allows the couple at its centre to simply play off each other.

Stabroek News
3 stars out of 4 -- Glenn Close is subtly devastating....Close and Jonathan Pryce have crackling chemistry with each other, the two veteran actors enjoying snappy banter and enduring lacerating battles.

Close is excellent in a film that excels due to its great cast. [Full Review in Spanish]

Like a bomb ticking away toward detonation, Glenn Close commands the center of The Wife: still, formidable and impossible to look away from.

Product Description:
Swedish director Björn Runge's drama film is based on American writer eg Wolitzer's 2003 novel of the same name. Glenn Close stars as an ageing wife and mother accompanying her egotistical husband (Jonathan Pryce) on a trip to Stockholm to receive the Nobel Prize for Literature. Burdened by further evidence of her husband's infidelities and the weight of her own unrealized literary ambitions, she refuses to play the role of a self-effacing and supportive wife any longer.
