(1 - 9) of 9 OFCS Rating: 100% Fresh Page   1   4.5/5 "this litany of human disconnection, misery, frustration and despair... would be an almost unbearably bleak mosaic of our living deaths, were it not for Andersson's profound appreciation of Chaplin's observation that comedy is tragedy seen in long-shot."   Channel 4 Film   Anton Bitel "Again a very successful look at the desperate mess of modern life."   european-films.net   Boyd van Hoeij 3.5/5 "Andersson is, at heart, an expert absurdist; to him, there is meaning in the meaningless and salvation in the ridiculous"   Filmcritic.com   Chris Cabin "Unlike most comedy directors, [Andersson i]s not laughing with his characters. He's laughing at them [in this] gut-busting yet underbearing expose of selfishness and self-pity."   The L Magazine   Henry Stewart 55/100 "To complain that Andersson's skits are difficult or boring to sit through because they seem too close to the pain of daily life is to pay them some kind of a compliment."   MovieMartyr.com   Jeremy Heilman 3/5 "No one views the world like Roy Andersson does. That fact alone is enough to recommend the Swedish director’s latest collection of interconnected, often single-take vignettes."   Time Out New York   Keith Uhlich 3.5/5 "Andersson's tableaus of the everyday are full of feeling, especially from the women (probably after a drink or two)."   Film-Forward.com   Kent Turner 3.5/4 "Dreams figure prominently in You, the Living, which posits reveries as articulations of--or refuges from--deep-seated fears."   Slant Magazine   Nick Schager 10/10 "It's always the movies that seem the least like movies that are the truest to life."   Antagony & Ecstasy   Tim Brayton  (1 - 9) of 9 OFCS Rating: 100% Fresh Page   1
