Trailer


Reviews


75
Movie Nation - Roger Moore
The result is wintry and melancholy, “A Child’s Christmas in Wales” or “Do Not Go Gentle Into that Good Night” in tone. And because of that, it’s a trifle duller than the man himself surely must have been.
63
Slant Magazine - Chuck Bowen
At least it doesn't make the biopic mistake of attempting to check off every moment of a man's life over the course of a few hours' worth of running time.
50
The Dissolve - Jen Chaney
Visually striking, meticulously rendered, a tiny bit pretentious, and emotionally inscrutable.
50
Observer - Rex Reed
A harrowing but tedious chronicle of Welsh poet Dylan Thomas’ time in America in the 1950s.
50
New York Post - Sara Stewart
Andy Goddard’s feature debut is shot stylishly in black and white, but deals in themes that feel equally retro.
