Little Fish (2021)

"A loving ode that stands on its own as a creative, inventive romance for a broken time."

"An earnest, if at times precious, meditation on memory..."

"The answers are not all there, but the questions keep the film intriguing."

"The film eclipses its conceit, delicately examining both the unique pain that is the loss of intimacy and what makes us fall in love with someone again and again."

"Touchingly romantic and emotionally credible."

"A sad, gorgeous film about love amid a pandemic..."

"A bittersweet small-scale saga whose occasional sluggishness is offset by its sensitivity..."

"An inventive exploration of the hardships and pain of losing a loved one..."

"Hartigan never strikes a hysterical tone, resulting in realistic horror within the recognisable confines of daily life."

"The result is better than smart, it’s stirring."

"A lovely film."

"Despite the dystopia lurking around the fringes of Emma and Jude’s life together... this looks no different than any of the other movies about good-looking people saying goodbye."

"(Cooke) and O'Connell both bring the cool project a necessary warmth that sells their relationship, which is the real star here, enough to carry the movie."

"Once you get past its note of emo-mawkishness, there’s something disquieting and poignant (and rather prescient) about this doomed love story of the future..."
