Sometimes I Think About Dying

"A graceful treatise on how challenging — but liberating — it can be to make connections."

"A film that’s simply about performance, on every level."

"A thin, practically anemic observational movie for audiences who recognise themselves in Fran’s awkwardness."

"For a film about the pull of death, there sure is a lot of life in this low-key charmer."

"(Ridley) gives an impressive performance... but the film’s initial promise fades."

"Daisy Ridley is riveting in this low-key character piece on loneliness."

"It’s kind of a downer, yes, but also stimulating as hell."

"(Lambert finds) the divine in the details."

"Ridley seems almost introduced anew... It is, to use an old cliché, a magnetic turn."

"It lacks the cinematic cohesion of a full-length feature."

"An imperfect but affecting portrait of social isolation."

"Sublimely portrays the monotony/minutiae of cubicle life."

"The whole thing ends up feeling unspecific and dull."

"Daisy Ridley plays Fran with sensitivity and poise."

"Ridley does a good job avoiding the traps of a character like Fran."

"Lambert's surreal touches heighten its melancholy, while its spry supporting cast keeps the film from drowning in it."

"Rachel Lambert’s quiet, steady drama... mixes, ever so subtly, the mundane with the sublime."
