The Dying Gaul

Drama A unique, post-modern Hollywood noir - unsettling, unpredictable and morally explosive.
Media Author Review
United States
The Washington Post
"A small, self-contained gem of incisive writing, superb acting and rich, expressive visuals."
United States
The Hollywood Reporter
"Before it disappears into a fog of confusion and damaging contradictions within its characters, The Dying Gaul presents an ironic, provocative look at what its creator, Craig Lucas, calls a postmodern Hollywood noir.
United States
Entertainment Weekly
"Has too many contrivances, but as an act of sinister staging, it proves Lucas, the noted playwright, to be a born filmmaker."
United States
Variety
"Despite a reliable cast led by Scott, Patricia Clarkson and Peter Sarsgaard, the human impact is ultimately lost in a too calculated scenario."
United States
AV Club
"Lucas' beautiful script and a trio of first-rate performances carry the material with an intermittently breathtaking urgency."
United States
San Francisco Chronicle
"'The Dying Gaul' has the best kind of story in that it unfolds as a series of surprises, and yet every step, twist and turn seems inevitable in retrospect."
