Praise for Gérald Hustache-Mathieu's NOBODY ELSE BUT YOU
"Smart and entertaining! A Southern California dream of the sort concocted by James Ellroy in 'L.A. Confidential' but removed to Europe and put in a deep freeze. The ravishing cinematography adds to the spell." - Stephen Holden, The New York Times
"A hint of Twin Peaks and a large helping of the Coen Brothers in this offbeat, cleverly crafted French thriller...perhaps the closest thing to Fargo to come along in a long while."
- Jordan Mintzer, The Hollywood Reporter
"A particularly droll and satisfying French murder mystery set in an unusually, almost hilariously cold and snowy corner of France. Writer-director Gérald Hustache-Mathieu sustains a fresh voice influenced by the Coen brothers and the infernal snow of Fargo. Grade: A-!" - Entertainment Weekly
"A Southern California dream of the sort concocted by James Ellroy in ‘L.A. Confidential’ but removed to Europe and put in a deep freeze…ravishing cinematography adds to the spell of a movie whose soundtrack incorporates the song ‘I Put a Spell on You.’”
- Stephen Holden, New York Times
"A Coen brothers-style neo-noir [in] the 'Little Siberia' of France. Hustache-Mathieu mixes the noir elements well with light comic touches…Give the summer blockbusters a rest, and pay a visit to cool, picturesque 'Little Siberia'. You won’t regret it."
- James Verniere, Boston Herald

"Playful & entirely French." - Mark Jenkins, NPR
"Clever…with a surprising semi-twist ending." -- Kevin Filipski, Film Forward

"Subversive with an offbeat sense of humor. A Gallic twist on a Coen brothers film."
- Boyd van Hoeij, Variety
"Risqué, tart, quirky comedy. There’s much to enjoy in this stylishly shot movie."
- Susannah Straughan, Sound on Sight
"Writer-director Gérald Hustache-Mathieu (April in Love) has fashioned a thrilling modern noir withNobody Else But You, a gorgeously shot tale of lust, pride, ambition, self-doubt, and obsession, with more than a hint of the surreal and liberal splashes of wry humor…The film sparkles whenever Quinton is onscreen, the actress casting an enchanting glow that rivals the almost blindingly white snowy landscapes of Mouthe, with expert cinematography…Nobody Else But You is a rousing good mystery with an engaging balance of the lurid and the erotic." - This Week in NY
"Sexy, witty, and full of clever cinematic in-jokes, “Nobody Else But You” is a deliriously delicious mystery." - Gary M. Kramer, Gay City News
"A risqué neo-noir French murder mystery with a comedic sensibility"- New York Magazine
“Imagine Raymond Chandler, Marilyn Monroe, Arthur Miller, and JFK showing up in a rural wasteland near the French-Swiss border. Add a few snowdrifts, a rundown hotel, an unsolved murder, and writer’s block….and a delectable performance by the sparkling beauty Sophie Quinton.” - Sandra Bertrand, GALO Magazine
"Delightfully frothy and darkly humorous. Combines the legacy of Marilyn Monroe and pulp crime fiction to deliver a playful, quirky comedy." - Sara Hemrajani, The Film Pilgrim
"Conjures a distinct Lynchian vibe...deceptively clever!" - David O'Connell, 20/20 Filmsight
"One of the most purely enjoyable films of recent years...Raymond Chandler done with the spirit of Chaplin. Perfectly balancing sex appeal, humour and emotional depth, Sophie Quinton proves herself as a performer of considerable skill and range."
- Michael Ewins, FlickFeast
