TV Series. Documentary 2 episodes. Teen Michelle Carter's actions shocked a nation - but what really happened behind closed doors? This HBO special showcases the prosecution's point of view and alternately the defense's. Which side do you fall on?

	Media	Author	Review
		Daniel D'Addario Variety	"[It] is clear-eyed and thoughtful, and, in two brisk installments, manages not to overstay its welcome (...) This film doesn’t seek to convince you it has all the answers. It’s willing simply to ask interesting questions"
		Robyn Bahr The Hollywood Reporter	"A layered tale that will force you to constantly second-guess your own assessment (...) Carr smartly constructs this story with plenty of cultural analysis"
		Kate Erbland IndieWire	"The revelations are indeed shocking (...) Carr’s film handily tears down much of the narrative surrounding the event (...) and aims to find some deeper truths underneath all the scrum."
		Brian Lowry CNN	"'I Love You, Now Die' might be short on definitive answers for these problems, but it raises all the right questions."
		Katie Rife AV Club	"The documentary makes extensive use of exclusive footage from Carter’s trial (...) It’s this journalistic edge that makes up for 'I Love You, Now Die's limitations"
		Alec Bojalad Den of Geek	"It’s precisely the kind of thing that is crying out for a capable documentary to examine with little bias and tremendous empathy. Thankfully, that documentary is now here"
		Ashlie D. Stevens Salon	"Carr excels in extending a touch of humanity to characters whose stories otherwise would be defined by what can be splashed on the cover of a tabloid."
