Recommandations

Rolling Stone
Within its small, darkly funny range, Trust is an exceptional film that stays alert to the mysteries of love. - 80
The New York Times
Though Mr. Hartley's films are richly detailed, there are no frills or grace notes. Such work risks being too blunt, but Trust comes through. - 75
TV Guide Magazine
Trust is stylishly photographed and crammed with quirky, offbeat incidents and dialogue. - 70
Variety
Long Island filmaker Hal Hartley progresses from his debut feature, The Unbelievable Truth to this bleak, off-center comedy about dysfunctional families in working class suburbia. - 70
Washington Post
He's made two features, "The Unbelievable Truth" and now Trust, and both are cool, strikingly original case studies of middle-class anomie. - 70
Washington Post
Trust is always interesting. And always interesting, as someone once said, is always good. - 67
Austin Chronicle
There's a serious teen angst movie somewhere in all this as well as an unflinching look at suburbia. - 60
Time
Another fond sketch of losers from the down-scale version of Woody Allen.
