Critic Reviews of "As I Lay Dying"
Kyle Smith New York PostOctober 11, 2013I don't pretend to have a clue how to adapt William Faulkner's "As I Lay Dying" for the screen, but unlike James Franco, I, at least, didn't try.
A.O. Scott New York TimesOctober 10, 2013As a whole ... "As I Lay Dying" conveys some of Faulkner's themes, and the details of the Bundren family story, with clarity and concision.
Elizabeth Weitzman New York Daily NewsOctober 10, 2013It remains to be seen whether James Franco can live up to his outsized ambitions.
Ignatiy Vishnevetsky AV ClubOctober 10, 2013Like Franco's other directorial efforts, it ends up coming across as an academic art object, somewhere halfway between a graduate thesis and a video installation-interesting, but only in context.
Catherine Bray Time OutOctober 09, 2013Faulkner fans... need not be up in arms about this version of his Nobel Prize winner.
David Fear Time OutOctober 08, 2013The past may never be done with us, but Lord, do we wish Franco was done with our literary heritage.
Matt Donato We Got This CoveredNovember 10, 2013As I Lay Dying tries to adapt the impossible, but unfortunately it is bested by Faulkner's weighty source material.
Chris Sawin Examiner.comNovember 06, 2013Some of the filming techniques are overused and the monologues are a bit too circuitous, but As I Lay Dying has the ability to be quite striking at times and its impulsive structure can be viewed as both an asset and a defect.
Justin Stewart Film Comment MagazineNovember 04, 2013A qualified, perfectly respectable success
Jeffrey M. Anderson Common Sense MediaOctober 24, 2013What Franco came up with... is messy, bizarre, muted, and confusing, but it's also heartfelt and personal. It takes more risks than most movies.
Rich Cline Shadows on the WallOctober 18, 2013Franco may prove that he has a fresh visual eye, but the highly emotive story is oddly uninvolving.
