Newsweek
The compositions, the editing, the lighting, the sound, the music: everything seems meticulously considered, conjuring up a hushed intimacy that instantly sucks you in. - 100
Slate
The best movie of the last several years: the most evocative, the most mysterious, the most inconsolably devastating. - 100
The New York Times
