The Guardian
This is terrific film-making – enough to bring a rush of blood to the head.

This dizzying, courageous, utterly humane and slightly unhinged film is a unique achievement.

Ambiguity is The Falling’s currency, and it’s all the richer for it.

Morley marries a quasi-Victorian premise with a modernist technique that feels drawn from her film’s own milieu.
