Atom User Reviews
Metacritic
The extraordinary child actress Ana Torrent (Cria) made her debut here at the age of five. Much in the film is derivative, but Erice excels in precise evocations of childhood feelings.

Chicago Reader
The Spirit of the Beehive, like Cinema Paradiso, also takes place at the particular intersection of reality and fantasy defined by youthful moviegoing.
Dana Stevens
The New York Times
Beehive is a graceful and potent lyric on children's vulnerable hunger, but it's also a sublime study on cinema's poetic capacity to reflect and hypercharge reality.
