"A heart-swelling, breathtaking piece of cinema." -Richard Lawson, Vanity Fair
"A film of suffocating power and surprising warmth. Dolan has found his own urgent voice and visual style. MOMMY bursts through the screen with the rough vitality of real people..." -Mary Corliss, TIME
"Xavier Dolan ranks as the most accomplished young dramatic filmmaker in North America...demonstrates an emotional perspicacity one might expect from an artist many years his senior." -J.R. Jones, Chicago Reader
Twenty-five-year-old French-Canadian filmmaker Xavier Dolan--who writes, directs, and stars in several of his films--lit the fuse with his 2008 debut "I Killed My Mother" and, having made nearly a film per year since, is poised to explode. His latest rapturously received film is MOMMY, a widowed single mother (Anne Dorval) struggles to raise her manic teenage son and finds new hope when a mysterious neighbor inserts herself into their household. Dazzlingly shot in an Instagram-like 1:1 aspect ratio that dramatically heightens movement and color, the effect is an outsized film serving pure tension and some truly memorable release. MOMMY earned Dolan Jury Prize co-honors with Jean-Luc Godard at the 2014 Cannes Film Festival.
