Housebound (also titled Kitchen Privileges) [1] [2] is a 2000 American thriller film written and directed by Mari Kornhauser and starring Katharina Wressnig and Peter Sarsgaard.
The film premiered at the Montreal World Film Festival on September 2, 2000. [1]
Eddie Cockrell of Variety gave the film a mixed review and wrote that "...Wressnig brings a fine Euro gravity to the updated Catherine Deneuve role, but viewers will be distracted by overly schematic and unconvincing production design." [1]
Ron Wells of Film Threat gave it a positive review, praising Kornhauser "...for expressing some unfashionable compassion of a tale that demonstrates that two people, no matter how screwed up, can help each other if they open themselves up." [2]
