Fresh
This Sundance-sanctioned, love-on-the-run melodrama is indie filmmaking of a deliberately timeless sort.
Joe Williams, St. Louis Post-Dispatch
Fresh
A lyrical modern Western that casts a contemporary but un-jaded eye on the romantic mythology of outlaw couples.
Michael Sragow, Orange County Register
Rotten
Writer-director David Lowery strains for poetry at every turn, and only the strain registers.
Ben Sachs, Chicago Reader
Fresh
Lowery has a lyrical style of storytelling that is delicate and subtle yet suffused with emotion and atmosphere. It's gentle and pointed at the same time.
Rene Rodriguez, Miami Herald
