- Critics' reviews
-
-
"A small, self-contained gem of incisive writing, superb acting and rich, expressive visuals."
-
"Before it disappears into a fog of confusion and damaging contradictions within its characters, The Dying Gaul presents an ironic, provocative look at what its creator, Craig Lucas, calls a postmodern Hollywood noir.
-
"Has too many contrivances, but as an act of sinister staging, it proves Lucas, the noted playwright, to be a born filmmaker."
-
"Despite a reliable cast led by Scott, Patricia Clarkson and Peter Sarsgaard, the human impact is ultimately lost in a too calculated scenario."
-
"Lucas' beautiful script and a trio of first-rate performances carry the material with an intermittently breathtaking urgency."
