Critic Reviews:
- " Hedges's central performance is one of expertly portrayed enigma. " – Tom Beasley (Flickering Myth)
- " Showy acting is popular, but I think Peter and Lucas Hedges…do their best work in the quieter moments, in which they take us deep inside a problem that has tragic consequences for so many people. " – Sydney Morning Herald
- " This is an intimate, incredibly tense drama about a troubled family battling raw emotional pains, a bare-bones and bare-knuckled look at the destructive powers of addiction. " – Minneapolis Star Tribune
