Kyle Smith Wall Street Journal 21 hrs ago
Saturated with convincing detail about the world of classical music and film scoring, the movie is a compelling character study marred only by a certain episodic quality. Go to Full Review Bilge Ebiri New York Magazine/Vulture 4 days ago
It captures a universal hesitancy, a very human recognition that putting ourselves out there can upend the pleasant, comforting meaninglessness of our lives. Alex Serian may not always be feeling much, but the film ensures that we do. Go to Full Review Elizabeth Weitzman Time Out 5 days ago
While there are stretches that feel thin, there are also moments when the multilayered music, fluid camerawork, and Pascal's performance blend into an exhilarating experience. Go to Full Review Will Bjarnar InSession Film 4 days ago
