Critic Reviews

Gary Goldstein

Dec 10, 2015

Compelling as Zylka and Keough may be — and we're definitely rooting for their well-etched characters — Bedford too often plies a kind of woeful wooziness here when a more propulsive approach is in order. Read full review

Joshua Rothkopf

Dec 8, 2015

A thick sheen of luscious lens flares and Terrence Malick–like poetic lulls feel like icing on an undercooked mud pie—Bedford’s script deserves a stronger engagement with its characters’ desperation. Instead they collide in a clichéd ending that feels padded. Read full review

Low on ideas and high on atmosphere, Dixieland is a promising debut, but it likely won’t find you overwhelmingly writing back home about it. Read full review

Dec 10, 2015

This is well-worn territory, and though the two leads are very good, the romance that is supposed to drive the story isn’t particularly well delineated. Read full review

Writer-director Hank Bedford delivers some tactile, human details.... But the film is slow and often agonizingly predictable. Read full review
