"To mount this 18th century love triangle between upper crust sisters Charlotte and Caroline von Lengefeld and penniless poet/philosopher Friedrich Schiller, writer/director Dominik Graf didn’t have too much to go on, given that his chief inspiration is the absence of a source: Charlotte’s correspondence with Schiller, which was all burned upon his death. Thus Beloved Sisters is more speculative period fiction than fact, albeit a marginally diverting one."

Flicks"An enthralling, gorgeously mounted depiction of [a] complicated relationship."

Variety
Variety"[A] handsomely produced if occasionally rather old-fashioned feeling period drama, which plays like a soap opera in which the characters just happen to have better manners and finery."
