Loving - Kritiken

Here is a film with its heart in the right place, an anatomical correctness coexisting with heartfelt, forthright conviction and an admirable belief in the virtue of simplicity and underplaying.

Ruth Negga er klart filmens helt store gevinst. Hendes skiftevis sårede og kærlige øjne er så eminent udtryksfulde, at jeg stadig kan se dem, når jeg lukker mine egne.

Nichols særlige evne til at strippe et manuskript for al overflødigt materiale og skære ind til benet klæder det ønskede fokus på kærlighedshistorien...

Though it’s impossible to know exactly how these two people felt in coping with this untenable situation (...) Nichols gives you a damn good idea...

Both actors deliver performances that are astounding in their subtlety, and show immense strength through their exquisite tenderness.

Ruth Negga and Joel Edgerton bring a quiet tenderness to this understated tale of racial prejudice in the Deep South.

The film’s determination not to overcook any single scene means the tears it eventually draws feel honestly come by...

Negga is up for an Oscar and both received Golden Globe nominations. And rightly so – it’s wonderful, delicate work, which fills out not just each character but the space between them.

...ett lågmält men otroligt gripande drama om förbjuden kärlek.
