Reviews
|
The Guardian -
This is terrific film-making – enough to bring a rush of blood to the head.
|
|
The Telegraph -
For all The Falling’s period trimmings, its uncanny power resides in these ellipses and blackouts – in elements that cannot be easily rationalised.
|
|
Time Out London -
This dizzying, courageous, utterly humane and slightly unhinged film is a unique achievement.
|
|
Total Film -
Ambiguity is The Falling’s currency, and it’s all the richer for it.
|
|
Variety -
Morley marries a quasi-Victorian premise with a modernist technique that feels drawn from her film’s own milieu.
