Reviews

"David Gordon Green's captivating winter-chill tragedy, is a tale that encompasses murder, divorce, adultery, alcohol abuse, mental breakdown, and the disappearance of a small child. In other words, it's downbeat enough to make the recent Oscar-nominated films look like party games."

   - Owen Gleiberman, Entertainment Weekly

"Green is a rare bird in American filmmaking: a humanist who knows how to tell a story."

   - Michael Phillips, Chicago Tribune

"With a deep understanding of his characters, Green has crafted a film that's devastating and uplifting without sounding a false note."

   - Jeremy Mathews, Film Threat

"All of these actors are incredibly fine, and as a confirmed Beckinsale non-fan, I'm obliged to say that she really knocked me out here."

   - Glenn Kenny, Premiere

"Emotionally harrowing and gentle by turns, this well-acted winter's tale is a more narrative-driven experience than Green's more lyrical Sundance entries, "George Washington" and "All the Real Girls.""

   - Justin Chang, Variety
