"Misses its subject’s sense of mischief."

"Watchable and persuasive, with a spoonful of sugar in the melancholy final image."

"An uninspired clod-hop through its subject’s life."

"Capably acted but emotionally lifeless."

"Gabriel Byrne brings authentic weariness to this biopic of the great writer."

Financial Times

Financial Times
