New Review For Movie Keep the Lights On
This is a painful drama, but its pain is more studied than emotive, and it demands that we think just as much as it makes us feel.
Dave Calhoun-Time Out The cast, uniformly excellent, draws us into a vibrant, energetic Manhattan where commitments are forged and broken through sheer chance and those seeking permanence must continually resist temptation and ennui.
Colin Covert-Minneapolis Star Tribune A complex and mysterious tale of a love affair, one that lacks the tidy story arc of a movie but feels real.
J. R. Jones-Chicago Reader When you summon memories of this film, they are almost always of two men in a room, in a default state of discontent.
Roger Ebert-Chicago Sun-Times A heart-breaking love story and call for emotional transparency in relationships.
Liam Lacey-Globe and Mail The performances are first-rate, with Lindhardt particularly moving as a guy who's in deep denial about just how much he can expect from a relationship with an addict.
Calvin Wilson-St. Louis Post-Dispatch The best film of 2012...Perfect.
Fr. Chris Carpenter-Rage Monthly Small in frame but large in heart.
Michael Nordine-Willamette Week Sachs captures Erik's yearning for Paul and Paul's addiction-induced indifference with equal force.
Sean Means-Salt Lake Tribune An intimate, honest and uncompromising study of the need for love and the addictions to drugs, sex and intense emotion that may accompany -- and sabotage -- love's pursuit.
John Beifuss-Commercial Appeal (Memphis, TN) A brutally honest, at times embarrassingly raw, attempt to capture a modern day, urban relationship...bittersweet and filled with memorable details, a huge leap forward for [director] Sachs.
Richard Knight-Knight at the Movies It feels as if we're being given glimpses into real lives unfolding.
Alistair Harkness-Scotsman There's a lot to like here, and if you're a traditionalist who hungers for a happy ending, you'll find it embedded in the opening credits.
Kimberley Jones-Austin Chronicle Director-cowriter Sachs takes an unusually intimate look at a 10-year relationship in this beautifully shot and performed New York drama.
Rich Cline-Contactmusic.com A tenderly observed portrait of a man aching for romance even as he resists the idea of full commitment.
Allan Hunter-Daily Express Every frame pulses with hard-gained experience: it may be the most lived-in film of 2012, and certainly counts among the most moving.
Mike McCahill-Guardian [UK] Monitoring the peaks and troughs of this fractious relationship is more fascinating than enjoyable.
Vadim Rizov-Little White Lies A visually arresting and wholly compelling drama, thanks to its gorgeously warm cinematography, pleasing soundtrack and impressive and convincing performances from its two male leads.
Jennifer Tate-ViewLondon Feels lopsided in its focus on Erik, with Paul remaining a strangely remote object of the former's romantic devotion.
Tom Dawson-Total Film While not quite on a par with Andrew Haigh's Weekend, this is still an undeniably powerful piece of filmmaking.
William Thomas-Empire Magazine It is a film in which we see snapshots of a long-term love affair that seems doomed from the start. The raw truth of much of it is strong enough to make the sometimes frustrating structure forgivable.
Brian Tallerico-HollywoodChicago.com It all has the feel of a pretentious film student desperately trying to make a statement with his thesis film. It's extremely overwrought with laughable melodrama.
Austin Kennedy-Sin Magazine I suspect it will have particular appeal for those who struggle with addiction.
