"[U]nexpectedly sharp, light and appealing, a testament to Hunt's skills behind the camera."Los Angeles Times "The movie is unusually sensitive to the anxieties around adoption....Ms. Hunt takes every opportunity to avoid easy comic schtick and cutesy-poo sentimentality in an effort to make her characters act and sound like real people."New York Times "What is especially impressive is how Hunt consistently creates dry, deadpan hilarity from the messy stuff of real life....Clearly committed to the material, Hunt extracts exquisitely subtle performances from her accomplished cast..."Box Office "The characters are given enough space to demonstrate that they have at least two and a half dimensions....Hunt's performance is terrific..." -- Grade: BEntertainment Weekly "[T]here are some emotional insights in the mother-daughter relationship at the heart of the film....Hunt draws some good performances from the cast and wisely chose a low-key personal story for her directorial debut."USA Today 3 stars out of 5 -- "This is a decidedly mature comedy drama, with Hunt on form both as director and star."Empire "Hunt and her co-writers have created a bittersweet comedy which treads similar ground to SIDEWAYS or AS GOOD AS IT GETS, but which offers a fresh feminised perspective on mid-life melancholia."Sight and Sound15.50673

Rolling Stone (4/1/04, p.90) - 3 1/2 stars out of 5 - "[H]e wraps his seamlessly quilted voice around wry, off-kilter lyrics; his skewed views on love and life are wholly his."Spin (3/04, p.96) - "[F]ull of sublimely janky '80s synths and melodies that jab and slide instead of blowing neo-soul smoke rings." - Grade: B+Entertainment Weekly (2/27/04, p.96) - "Van Hunt's debut, while more lush and original than recent [neo-soul] offerings...rings refreshingly dark and disturbing." - Rating: AMojo (Publisher) (p.108) - 4 stars out of 5 - "[T]his is a remarkably coherent and focused album....There's real substance and soulfulness to be found..."13.49222

"A Sundance hit that is both absorbing and bleak, FROZEN RIVER is anchored by powerful performances, believable scenarios and excellent writing."USA Today "This intense indie drama of unlikely female partners involved in a smuggling operation on the Canadian border is a bracing character study."Los Angeles Times "In FROZEN RIVER, Leo's acting has a brittle severity and power. Every moment of her performance feels torn from experience, and so does the movie, which finds a suspense in broken lives that are hanging in the balance." -- Grade: A-Entertainment Weekly 3.5 stars out of 5 -- "Melissa Leo delivers a beautifully understated performance as Ray Eddy....Writer/director Courtney Hunt keeps her bearings on Leo, granting the actress unparalleled latitude to evolve a character..."Box Office "A spellbinding thriller, yes, but even more a portrait of economic struggle in desperate times."Chicago Sun-Times "Everyone at the center of FROZEN RIVER is standing on the edge of a chasm of despair....In the darkness, Hunt chooses instead of hope and redemption to go for reality, and that turns out to be a gift that is both brave and rare."Los Angeles Times "Leo is a revelation, turning what could've been kitchen sink clichs into a tiny miracle of human resilience." -- Grade: A-Entertainment Weekly 4 stars out of 5 -- "Leo and Upham make an unlikely double act in a finely written, well-played film with a striking plot and setting.

Spin (p.91) - "[D]elightfully weird....His songs are jammed with enough surprises to make him seem like a singular new talent."CMJ - "With simple-yet-thoughtful instrumentals of subtle guitars, humming banjos and delicate pianos offset by passionately sung, complex and often narrative-like lyrics, THE WILD HUNT is a bluesy folk album..."Paste (magazine) (p.82) - "The clean, galloping banjos and guitars spotlight his pristine snarl, which slips down into powerful bass notes and then reaches up and yelps on key..."Clash (magazine) - "A] graceful and beautiful advancement of form....THE WILD HUNT is another reminder that The Tallest Man On Earth may very well be the saviour of modern folk."Uncut (magazine) (p.108) - 4 stars out of 5 -- "The likes of 'Burden Of Tomorrow' and the title track combine ageless melodies with vivid, fluently poetic images."9.741464
