Reviews
|
Christian Science Monitor -
Lena Dunham, the writer-director-star of the microbudget Tiny Furniture, has a distinctive comedic take on the world – a kind of haggard spiritedness.
|
|
Chicago Tribune -
The movie is full, assured and extremely wry.
|
|
Washington Post -
A funny, affecting movie about growing up in the shadow of a formidable mom.
|
|
Chicago Sun-Times -
It's hard enough for a director to work with actors, but if you're working with your own family in your own house and depicting passive aggression, selfishness and discontent and you produce a film this good, you can direct just about anybody in just about anything.

San Francisco Chronicle -
What Dunham lacks in polish, she makes up for in her ability to observe her generation, with the hardest truths coming at her own expense.
